The new shelter for 200 single men at 526 North Western Ave. only has two bathrooms and officials say it will need construction. Those who want the city to pump the breaks are questioning safety. "Why is this shelter focusing on single men at a location that is across the street from a liquor store and two blocks from a park?" one resident asked.
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.
