Google maps won’t even give me the closest chain store when I search. Directions to the target 13miles away and not the one 1 mile away. That would need to be fixed in order to provide the closest charger for my ev. It’s google so nothing will get fixed
Wow. Another example of Google on the cutting edge. 🙄
I don’t understand why I need AI to find a charger on a map. It’s not like the charger has legs where it gets up and moves to a new location every other week.
The article says nothing about AI; just that EV charger location and availability is a feature being added to Google Maps.
Sorry. I assumed it was one of the other announcement articles I saw today mentioning AI.

The ML tool is a summary of the directions. That’s a plausible use of ML
