A few days back, French research institute INRIA launched a voice assistant “AlloCovid” in an attempt to help callers experiencing potential coronavirus symptoms and guide them to emergency services or their doctors, using AI.
And now, France is integrating new AI tools into the security camera in the Paris metro system to monitor whether travellers are wearing face masks. According to Bloomberg, the authorities began a three-month trial in the central Chatelet-Les Halles station, Paris, which is normally used by 33 million passengers per year.
