Cities are more efficient. AI will probably increase the efficiency of cities to a larger extend then it will increase the efficiency of rural live. So the drive for urbanization should persist,grow larger if anything.

And there will always be people who prefer rural living. AI might result in more people turning away from cities but i think the increase in efficiency will be atractive enough for many people to prefer the cities.

Oh yeah efficiency is the only thing people care about in their lives. They don't give a crap about getting mugged and beaten.

After you've experienced big city crime a few times you kind of yearn for something much safer.

Goes both ways though, I used to live in a shithole rural town with meth heads down the road.
