How are digital cities transforming the future of urban living? In this episode, Bill chats with Bai Lu, Senior Technologist for Global Digital Cities at Dell, to explore the evolution of digital cities and how they're redefining traditional urban frameworks. Bai Lu shares her journey from engineering to leading digital transformation while exploring how edge computing reduces latency, boosts security, and powers digital twins for smarter city planning.

Key Quotes:

“One way that we can help the city planners using a digital twin platform is to actually help the city planners to predict. What will be the potential issue that is affecting their sustainability plan, like city traffic or air pollution or noise pollution, when they actually want to build a new project?”

“The thing that I'm really looking forward to is this equality of using technology for everyone. There will be no limit to anyone because of location, connectivity, or because of age. I believe the future is not far.”
