    It’s not all genAI. One example they give is scanning the road surface with the bin lorries. Not a bad idea

      People who drive on those streets could have an easy way to report road issues, and frequently they do. The actual hurdle for doing anything about potholes is almost always a lack of funding for road repairs.

      Doing some kind of complex electronic sensor system is a waste of money compared to making it easy for people to quickly and easily report issues.
