Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I don't know what function or component they're thinking of putting "AI" into, but I will make it absolutely clear that I will not have any function whatsoever of my motorcycle not to be under my personal and direct control, period, end of discussion.
There will be no "fuzzy logic," there will be no "adapting to gathered user data," there will be no "decision making tree." There will be no subscription. There will be no app. There will be no tracking. There will be no phoning home.
I will be in full control of my vehicle at all times, in all circumstances, without exception. And if that is too much for you and your stupid fucking startup to comprehend I will not be buying your motorcycle.
The only time I'm okay with tech taking over the control is when the bike is slipping out of control in the first place. (This is ABS and TC, which already exist don't need any "AI"!)
Even then, you're still in control. ABS may have kicked in because you pulled the lever. If you let go of the lever, the brakes stop braking. If you let go of the throttle, power stops getting applied to the rear wheel. ChatGPT or whatever the hell did not decide to brake for you, is the point.
And your ABS and traction control work the same way in the same conditions every time. No AI algorithm is trying to "self improve" and in the process changing the way the machine behaves behind your back without your knowledge. That sort of thing is dangerous enough in a car, but it's positively suicidal on a bike.
