Environmental reaction?

Google CEO's recent comment . . .

---"Artificial Intelligence is more profound than fire, electricity, or the internet." - Google's CEO (July 13, 2021)

---"There is almost a generalized visceral disdain amongst environmental professionals to artificial intelligence at this point in time. It's strange. Our profession is almost hoping it will go away. We must overcome our fear."- Jed Anderson

---“AI can make humans more productive than we have ever imagined.”- Google's CEO (July 13, 2021)

1. EnviroAI uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify all facilities with distance limitations in permits and permits-by-rule (and facilities that potentially should have distance limits).
2. EnviroAI then uses NLP to identify the particular distance limit for that authorization (which can vary significantly--ex/ 106.262 and individual permit representations).
3. EnviroAI finally uses satellite images, aerials, and vision AI to determine what structures of potential concern exist within those distance limits (see analysis below).

IS THE PUBLIC SAFE?

IS A FACILITY IN COMPLIANCE?
