"And it will alert us if it spots smoke, sends a text message, email messages, and then we can determine based on that location, is it a car fire? Is it a vegetation fire? Is there a threat to the public?" explains PG&E spokesperson Deanna Contreras.

And in cases of heavy winds downing power lines, or dry lightning strikes, experts say it can be a volatile window for fires. For now, PG&E will only be testing the current version of the AI software with its new cameras. But they say the program is part of a broader commitment to up the utility's fire prevention capabilities.

In several cases, director KT McNulty says the technology was able to send an alert slightly ahead of 911. But an even more significant advantage may be on the horizon. The company is about to launch a beta version of a night vision technology, designed to provide 24/7 surveillance.

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- With devastating cycles of wildfires now menacing Northern California, PG&E, is expanding its network of cameras, like these that sit on top of Mt. Tam, in Marin County. The utility installed nearly 140 new HD cameras in all, and 46 of those will have an added capability, artificial intelligence.

"And every bit of data helps. And the sooner that we can determine, okay, is this a real threat? Then the safer for everyone," says PG&E's Contreras.

The AI fire spotting system is made by a South Korean company called Alchera. Earlier this summer, ABC7 profiled a pilot test of the monitoring software at the REDCOM fire center in Sonoma County.
