Muhendis Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 This is probably a very silly question with an obvious answer but what is the AI going to be doing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravity101 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Unless they sort out the chaotic and inadequate parking, access roads etc it'll be a waste of money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pier is in one of the main safe all year berths in the Phuket area which attracts a lot of normal and possibly nefarious traffic. It also has an Immigration, Customs and Marine Department located at the end of the pier where a lot of international yachts check-in. Boat people eg Rohingyas have been found landing in Chalong bay. The AI system will no doubt improve safety and security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETERTHEEATER Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Presumably the artificial intelligence is to fill the void due to lack of common sense in the local Administration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
