Calif. Plans to Use AI Soon to Help Reduce Traffic; Asks Technology Companies to Brainstorm Ideas

 The California Department of Transportation,teaming up with other state agencies, is  asking technology companies by Jan. 25 to propose generative AI (artificial intelligence) that could help California reduce traffic and make roads safer, especially for pedestrians, cyclists, and scooter riders, the LA Times website reports today (Jan. 9, 2024).


Generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, can quickly produce text, images, and other content, but the technology can also help workers brainstorm ideas. 


The request shows how California is trying tp tap into AI to improve government services at a time when lawmakers seek to safeguard against the technology's potential risks.
