Google's AI Traffic Light Project May Have Been a Mistake
Briefly

"While Boston boasts about its partnership with the project, officials from other cities that use the Google traffic light AI suggested... its recommendations often fell short of the mark."
"Representatives from the English city of Manchester... told SciAm that its traffic engineers often ignored Project Green Light's recommendations regularly because they weren't very good."
"Newly deployed in Boston, cities like Seattle, Machester, England, and others have used Project Green Light to varying degrees of success."
"Even Mariam Ali, a spox for Seattle's Department of Transportation who implemented Project Green Light... acknowledged that unexpected road events sometimes can't be predicted by an algorithm."
