Abstract This chapter digs deeper into the smart city concept and all of its technologies such as cameras, sensors, Internet of things, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and big data, and the deployment of these technologies in our cities. In whose interest is a smart city project launched? Then it discusses newer developments related to social changes in society as the millennials take over as working adults, such as the move from owning (the value of property) versus sharing (the value of usage) stuff. Then it gets back to the car and describes the perfect storm in the car industry (electric, shared, and autonomous) and this industry’s diminishing importance now and in the near future. Following that, the chapter further explains the limitations of the smart city concept and discusses the emerging concept of the “3 Ds”: digitalization, decentralization, and decarbonization and changes in public opinion and behavior. The chapter then details the concept of more Humane and Sustainable Smart Cities, as a response to all of these changes and to new demands from society. © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
