When sensors fail in traffic light systems, they get reset to all flashing red, or in some limited cases all flashing yellow.

    The traffic light does not take new input and changes its pattern
    based on that. If you need to change the pattern, they study and
    then reprogram the lights. It is a fixed system. Not a good
    comparison.

    Any systems which has to study the behavior of the systems by
    itself and produce “artificial intelligence” are still many years,
    if not a few years, away.

    Let's stop using the buzzword AI and just use computer or system.

    What's the accuracy of traffic lights?  Are you concerned about
    that system?

        99%? That means 1 out of 100.

        99.99%? That means 1 out of 10,000.

        AI is mostly operating in the 50-60% reliability range, which
        means it's more-or-less a coin toss.
