Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 6 - Meet Ava and Cora!
Q: How scalable is this technology for smaller PSAPs or counties with limited staff?
The system is designed to be lean enough to support smaller centers, delivering automation that reduces load on three to four operators and supports a more distributed workload across agencies while maintaining policy-based decision making.
Episode 6 - Meet Ava and Cora!
Q: Can you describe how Cora works on the dispatch screen during a live call?
Cora performs transcription in the background and uses AI to surface the most relevant data and suggested questions, which are highlighted on a heads-up display for the dispatcher to validate and finalize before dispatch.
Episode 6 - Meet Ava and Cora!
Q: How does Ava actually reduce non-emergency call volume in practice?
Ava filters non-emergency inquiries by routing irrelevant calls away from the appropriate agency while capturing essential information if there is any potential emergency, ultimately cutting non-emergency volume by about 70-75% on average.
Episode 5 - The Challenges of AI and Social Media
Q: What are the biggest risks when AI is used by bad actors in emergency contexts?
Risks include misinformation, misleading situational awareness, and the potential for AI-generated content to drive incorrect decisions unless there is robust ground truth and correction mechanisms.
Episode 5 - The Challenges of AI and Social Media
Q: Do you set policy on AI use in public safety agencies, and should there be restrictions?
The panel suggests leadership-driven policy rather than outright bans; focus on vetting sources, setting clear objectives, and ensuring AI complements ground truth and professional expertise.
