"The current mayoral administration downplays the dire nature of present realities by revisiting the fiscal sins of the city’s past and prioritizing short-term remedies to the city’s deficit rather than doing the hard work of fixing Chicago’s structural problems."
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.
“… rather than doing the hard work …”
I think they may have isolated the problem.
