Microsoft : anti-smoking AI. A lit cigarette burns at about 600 degrees Celsius. The point automaticof its ignition petrols is less than half degrees. Despite this, there are people who smoke while pumping gas.
Because of this widespread behavior, Microsoft has developed an alarm system that uses AI to help gas station employees "catch" offenders.
It is hard to imagine the stupidity it takes to ignore basic laws of thermodynamics, but there are many who do. So the team Microsoft's Azure considered that some complex artificial intelligence is the best way to deal with it problem.
Microsoft is reportedly using cameras to keep track of gas station customers and when local AI detects certain behaviors (a lit cigarette for example) sends images to the cloud where a powerful AI determines whether or not to hit an alarm.
Microsoft is not specialized with alarms and we hope you will not be ridiculed by any mistake. However, the idea sounds very useful, as nobody wants to risk his life because one's addiction can not wait for five minutes.
Of course the way Microsoft proposes costs, and in Greece today there are probably no gas stations that can afford the use of AI models. But a pilot program with the new technology is currently running in two stations Shell fuels (in Singapore and Thailand).
