Scanning a licence plate is one thing, working out if a car is parked illegally is another, right?


That's being done in Rotterdam for ages. Cars with cameras on top which determine which cars have a parking violation. I think they check illegally parked cars plus cars which didn't pay. It's anything but new technology.


"AI" is not a synonym for "cutting edge less than a year old technology", the fact that this sort of AI has existed for years doesn't change the fact that it is a form of AI nor the fact that this specific city had decided to start to use it now.
