From the "What could possibly go wrong??" department: New Orleans will use AI to answer 911 calls instead of a human
You see, we need AI to handle the increased volume of calls caused by the increased number of weather events caused by climate change caused by increased energy consumption caused by AI data centers...
Anyway. I am sure that no AI will lose its life due to this policy.
