A pilot project is launching in our city, where artificial intelligence will take over control, braking, and even door opening, reports mazyr.by.

Rumors that rail transport will soon be entrusted to neural networks and sensors are receiving official confirmation. General Director of BKM Holding Mikhail Symanovich revealed the first details of the ambitious project at a press conference, noting that the main goal of the innovations is to increase safety and reduce accidents.

The driver will remain in the cab, but will shift from being a pilot to a sort of onboard engineer: providing backup and monitoring. Full driverless operation should eliminate the human factor, minimize risks, and make the schedule rock‑solid predictable.
