[Artificial intelligence](https://www.smartcitiesworld.net/news/news/optibus-uses-ai-in-drive-to-reduce-travel-delays-2870) can already predict bus reliability, by using troves of data to determine how likely a bus is to leave its point of origin and arrive at its destination on time. This information can improve transportation planning, since operators are then able to adjust the schedule to improve their buses’ [on-time performance](https://www.optibus.com/product/on-time/).
