The new wave of technological revolution driven by artificial intelligence(AI)has become a competitive advantage pursued by countries worldwide,and it is also expected to bring about significant innovations in urban geography.This paper reviews the development trajectory of AI and proposes a conceptual model of the urban human-environment system oriented towards AI.It systematically outlines and summarizes the involvement of AI in urban geography research from four perspectives:data representation,scenario applications,spatial transformations,and urban development.Additionally,it identifies the challenges,contexts,exploration paths,and future prospects faced in the intelligent transformation of academic disciplines.The study finds that:(1)The interactions between elements within the urban human-environment system oriented towards AI are becoming increasingly complex.(2)The trend of AI becoming a primary tool in urban geography research is increasingly evident,offering high efficiency,low cost,and strong learning capabilities in data processing.This has significant implications for spatial perception and intelligent decision-making.AI has sparked spatial transformations,not only creating complex virtual spaces but also reconstructing social spaces.Additionally,AI supports the development of smart cities and the establishment of cutting-edge urban application platforms.(3)Urban geography research in the context of intelligent transformation faces challenges related to data and technology,as well as the broader contexts of global and local changes,technological ethics,and the development of humanistic values.Future development paths could explore overcoming technical barriers,focusing on urban spatial construction and governance,and emphasizing the research on the effects of multiple intelligence shifts.The discipline urgently needs comprehensive transformation and upgrading.
