Today's Poll Question: Do you want AI or Cops enforcing traffic laws?

from The Smerconish Podcast · host Michael Smerconish

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Who do you want enforcing traffic laws, AI or cops? After receiving a $300 automated school bus violation notice tied to his own Jeep, Michael Smerconish dives into the growing role of artificial intelligence in policing everyday life. From AI-powered traffic cameras to license plate readers now operating in thousands of communities, this episode explores the tradeoff between efficiency, safety, privacy, and human judgment. Michael connects his personal experience to a much larger national debate: are Americans comfortable replacing police discretion with algorithms and automated enforcement systems? Plus, he reflects on yesterday’s heated Iran poll results and why voters may be letting politics cloud national security judgment. Listen here, then vote! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
