A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
This money would have been better spent putting body cams on the mayor, his staff, and all the aldermen. Document their stupidity and malfeasance 24/7.
IQ air has a feature where you can share your private air quality monitor results. Their website indicates 36 monitors in Chicago and 3 public data sources (public monitors) if I read their site correctly.

Great, we will have air monitors and no industry to monitor.
Is this the same city with LEAD WATER PIPES?
Now they just have to find a way to use all those monitors to tax or file lawsuits on supposed polluters to feed to $$$progressive scam beast$$$…which you can bet they already have plans. Who needs traffic ticket cameras when we have a zillion air pollution monitors!!!….enjoy your $$$$EQUITY$$$$
Chicago’s air pollution will improve anyway as businesses and residents leave the area.
Green, environmental justice nuttery. And the Sun-Times picture of polluted air is from when the Canadian wildfires fogged the air.
