I'm excited to see AI being applied to traffic management. Automating traffic signals is a great use case for AI.

I agree! I wonder what kind of machine learning models they'll be using. Would be great if they could use reinforcement learning.

Yeah, reinforcement learning could be really cool. I saw a video of a self-driving car that used reinforcement learning to navigate city streets. Impressive stuff.

I'd be interested in learning more about their infrastructure. Wonder if they'll be running everything on the cloud.

Cloud is definitely the way to go. I just finished a project where we migrated our entire ML infrastructure to AWS. It was a nightmare at first, but it's worth it in the end.

I've worked with AWS on a few projects, and I have to agree. The flexibility and scalability are amazing. Only issue is the cost, but if you're backed by Y Combinator, I guess that's not a problem.

Cost is definitely a concern. I've seen too many projects go overboard with AWS and end up with huge bills. Make sure to keep an eye on those costs and optimize.

What technologies will they be using for the backend? I hope they're using something modern and fast. Maybe Go?

Go is a great choice for high-performance systems. I use it for all my backend projects. Very easy to learn and use.

The potential cost savings from optimizing traffic flow could be huge. Imagine the reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. This is a really interesting application of AI.

Yes, and reducing traffic congestion could also lead to improvements in air quality and urban planning. Great to see a focus on sustainability here.
