📰 New traffic light technology to reduce wait time at metro Detroit intersections — #MichiganPublic

#UMich researchers use #AI to analyze #Detroit traffic flows using anonymized GPS data and compute new timings to synchronize traffic lights. Then they physically load the timing data into traffic lights. They hope to be able to remotely update traffic light data in the future.

Is this a good, harmless use of AI?

Does anyone know if the University Of Michigan Government Relations voter study data is publicly available? It must not be, right? #umich #thesegraphsaresouseless #dataviz

Got the chance to hear and meet Karen Hao today at the her #umich guest lecture. She provides an exceptional account of how the insanities of #AI have taken hold in the US, and many grounded ideas into how we can resist and govern their existence, in her book "Empire of AI."

As she mentions in the book and in her lecture, the future is not predictable, nor should it be. We as technologists should be reactive and attentive to change, and shape our systems of technology in response. @karenhao

I’m studying information at UMich, looking at how many engagements I can get on Pixelfed. Presenting feedback on the interactions, please say something. 😊#umich #comment #explore #likes

#AnnArbor #Umich Sooooooo we just drove past the stadium and it sure LOOKS like Zach Bryan concert parking is happening right now? But the concert is tomorrow? After the game?

Is there _another_ game tonight?

Somebody is confused.
