This image represents an AI model that can visualize or synthesize a potential outcome in real time. For example, Accra is consistently ranked as one of most polluted cities on the African continent, and it has become difficult to visualize what a clean city might look like. Projecting a clean version of the city onto the actual, physical environment might motivate the local population and government to take proactive steps to clean and maintain the city. This AI model could show the user what the city would look like in, say, 2 years if certain waste protocols were put in place. Alternatively, the model could show what the city might look like in 2 years if no waste protocol is enacted. This kind of reactive, real-time modeling could help make the impact of various situations and policies more tangible.
