Municipal AI Commons
Projection: municipalities will pool open components for translation, intake, search, redaction, and evaluation. Shared procurement gives smaller cities leverage and makes evidence reusable; open interfaces keep essential civic capability portable. The commons succeeds only if maintenance and accountability are shared as deliberately as the code.
Why this idea is here
What the evidence establishes.
