Established in 2021, the center uses artificial intelligence (AI) for comprehensive emergency response, monitoring 900 CCTV cameras across 17 of Seoul’s 21 pedestrian-accessible Han River bridges. Beyond suicide prevention, its most frequent task, the center also handles criminal tracking, traffic accidents and drug enforcement.
…
Much of that credit goes to AI, which triggers an alarm if an object identified as a person remains for more than 300 seconds in a bridge’s “loitering zones,” sections where people are able to stand for extended periods.
This is one of the good uses of AI. It is called object detection with neural networks and is a very classic use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in computer vision.
There was no LLM, no transformer, no huge data center necessary for training this model.Please distinguish generative from predictive AI, it means a lot to all the data scientists out there inventing cool stuff!
See? AI saves lifes. Now go pend your tokens and stop using your brain, meatbag /s
