As some of you know, my wife’s (@jenbegakis) family lost their home in the Palisades fire. I have used AI to map the responders’ radio communications (link below). We’ve wanted to better understand what was happening on Tuesday, as it was all a blur. I downloaded the feeds provided by @Broadcastify and used my company’s tech to transcribe, cluster, and localize the scanner communications. We’ve actually found calls close to the home and learned that the firefighters wanted to save the block, but there was no water available. This provides a little bit of closure. I’m putting this online in hopes it will help others affected. Right now, it’s only one feed, as the system is still transcribing and analyzing the data. I want to thank the heroic efforts of the firefighters, first responders, and the countless people who have shown kindness, help, and generosity. Please consider donating to the relief efforts. God bless.
