I don't know if he's using this as a proof of concept or if he actually plans on making a functioning city. If it's the latter, I doubt it'll succeed.
Ideas for "utopian" planned cities have existed for centuries (Like Walt Disney's original vision for Epcot) but they almost never get built. If they do, they end up being not much more than a novelty before becoming abandoned.
