Soraya Martinez Ferrada explains how AI can replace orange cones | The Corner Booth

Soraya Martinez Ferrada is about to reach her first 100 days as mayor of Montreal, and a lot has happened so far. On this week's episode of The Corner Booth with hosts Bill Brownstein and Aaron Rand, the mayor talked about entering city hall having to deal with STM strikes that paralyzed the city. More recently, she went viral on social media for blowing out the tires of her car on potholes on Notre-Dame St. E., and had to contend with downtown businesses pleading for relief from construction woes on Ste-Catherine St. She also discussed job cuts to the city’s white-collar workforce and a plan to reduce the number of orange cones while using AI to plan work sites.
