Show Notes
Seattles new mayor, Katie Wilson, has temporarily halted the city-wide rollout of Microsoft Copilot, an AI tool initially set for full launch in February. The tool, which showed promise during a pilot with 500 employees, is now under review due to concerns about its potential impact on public work. The city has been exploring AI in various sectors, including permit processing, traffic management, and customer service, and is collaborating with the University of Washington to identify legal issues. Pilot users reported saving an average of 2.5 hours per week, with many already using similar tools like ChatGPT.
