States across the wildfire-prone Western U.S. are using AI for early detection.
@AssociatedPress@flipboard.com reports: "In Arizona, California and beyond, the technology is mostly used in high-risk areas that are sparsely populated, rural or remote, where a blaze might not be quickly spotted by human eyes."
