Maribyrnong council is now trialling Hello Lamp Post, a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool, which acts as another engagement tool with the community.
Council said Maribyrnong is one of the first municipalities in Australia to trial this post.
According to council, The Hello Lamp Post two-way communication platform supports participation and broadens the opportunity for the community to engage.
It can be used to survey, collect sentiment and opinion, share content, answer questions and act as a signpost for more information and resources.
By scanning the QR code on one of the yellow signs, users can have a conversation and learn more about our Community Vision and council plan.
Council said it is trialling the Hello Lamp Post AI tool by asking a question.
’How would you like to be involved in the initial conversation to support the development of Community Vision and Community Plan?’
The information gathered will then be used to tailor engagement approach on the Community Vision when it takes place from mid-2024.
There’s no app to use for Hello Lamp Post, no sign up fees or any registration forms , only a QR code is required to scan and complete the interaction at your pace.
