AI startup aims to revolutionize waste management with state-of-the-art system that sorts garbage

FOX News

Some might say A.I. is garbage, but it's actually helping humans in several ways – even helping them organize just that. Young innovators Ian Goodine and Ethan Walko have developed the AuditPRO, a patent-pending waste auditing system powered by A.I. that "allow[s] businesses to gather real-time data about their waste stream composition" and is used just like a regular waste bin, according to the company rStream Recycling's website. The company rStream is a startup founded by Goodine and Walko to explore such A.I. and robotics technology for waste management and compost collection purposes. The AuditPRO is just some of its technology. According to the "All Things Considered" podcast, it uses thousands of images to train the program to organize garbage "more efficiently than humans."
