Smart cities Memes

Welcome to the corporate dystopia of "smart cities" planning! Two team members immediately jump to surveillance-based solutions—one suggesting "Minority Report" pre-crime AI (because nothing says urban planning like arresting people before they drive badly), and another brilliantly proposing "1984" surveillance (because traffic congestion is definitely solved by Big Brother watching you). Meanwhile, the quiet engineer in the corner suggests actual math and science: graph theory to optimize the street grid into a more efficient tree structure while adapting speed limits. Naturally, this person gets thrown out the window. Can't have actual solutions interfering with our dystopian surveillance fantasies! Fun fact: Graph theory has been used to solve real traffic problems since the 1950s, but why use proven mathematics when you can just slap "AI" on a proposal and get triple the funding?
