NewzHong Kong is exploring the implementation of an advanced "AI city brain" to manage urban challenges, drawing comparisons to systems already deployed in mainland China. In Hangzhou, a newly developed "riders' code" system utilized artificial intelligence during the approach of Severe Typhoon Dolphin in August to automatically issue safety alerts and personalized guidance to over 110,000 delivery riders every minute.
The technology directed workers to nearby emergency shelters via mobile navigation with minimal user input, showcasing the practical application of municipal AI infrastructure in disaster response. This operational capability highlights the growing integration of smart city technologies to protect vulnerable outdoor workforces during severe weather events.
