Shreveport TimesNew Orleans will use AI to answer 911 calls instead of a humanNew Orleans is using AI to answer 911 calls instead of human dispatchers. What does this mean for crime and emergency response?

That title is written by someone who failed basic grammar. It should be “New Orleans will use AI instead of humans to answer 911 calls”.
What it says as it’s written is “AI will only answer 911 calls but not a human”… which doesn’t make any sense.
