Google's 'Project Green Light' uses AI to optimize traffic lights in cities worldwide, reducing wait times and emissions. The project has already made adjustments at intersections in Seattle, resulting in smoother traffic and reduced emissions. Google's AI-based system, Green Light, can analyze thousands of intersections simultaneously, saving time for the Seattle Department of Transportation and improving efficiency. The project has the potential for up to a 30% reduction in stops and an average 10% reduction in estimated CO2 and pollution.
