Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County
Generative AI emergency-call training and automated debriefing
Nashville's AI call-taking trainer reached 190 users across 1,120 training sessions
Problem
Emergency call-taker training required experienced staff to spend time away from active duty. Trainees also needed timely feedback on their performance.
Approach
Vanderbilt researchers and Metro Nashville developed and deployed a generative AI training system. Models played callers through a telephone interface, and the system assessed responses against protocol requirements. Trainees received debriefing after each session.
Results
Takeaway
Deployment logs established sustained training use. Session counts did not establish improved handling of real emergency calls.
