Comment on New Orleans is using AI to triage 911 calls in case of backlog

Comments

I don't understand how we can keep giving the police shiny new toys and juicy overtime pays but can't find enough people to take 911 calls.

If you don't give the cops their toys, they might go on a work strike, threaten politicians, or whatever. If you don't give 911 operators money and more seats the backlash is much more muted.

maybe they need a strong union and strikes?
