In this episode, we talk with municipal security consultant Marcus Vance about the transition from passive CCTV feeds to active AI-monitored infrastructure grids.
Traditional security setups rely on humans scanning dozens of screens, leading to missed events. Modern smart city hubs utilize neural networks to recognize vehicle patterns, detect fire indicators, and log intrusions automatically.
We address the controversial questions of data ownership, cloud versus edge compute pipelines, and how cities can implement public security measures while protecting citizens' personal privacy rights.
