Deviant Ollam has a video with clips from the crosswalks. He also mentions the accessibility is not impacted. Worth a watch if you haven’t heard the AI impressions.

That being said at least in one case “The pedestrian push buttons have been deactivated and crosswalks are currently operating on a timer”.

Isn’t needlessly disabling the safety device on the authorities though?

SV road signs are constantly covered in graffiti. They don’t just take them down until a replacement arrives.

The expected sounds are mark Zuckerberg talking about AI for 20 seconds?

No, no kudos to anyone who fucks with safety devices to make some point of theirs.

The expected sound is the "WAIT!" voice, which you can clearly still hear. Anything in addition to that is of zero detriment to the accessibility of the system.

And you know this how? Because your gut tells you?

Because TFA includes videos with sound showing the actual crosswalk signals are present at before the "PSA" plays.

If "your gut" is a synonym for "the multiple videos in the actual article", then sure.

How is it impacted?
