Keynote Luncheon Autonomous Everything: What AI Means For AEC - Greg Lindsay
“Technology is the answer, but what was the question?” the British architect Cedric Price famously asked. Generative artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT and Midjourney may have taken the world by storm, but AEC professionals are grappling with how AI and automation will transform design and construction. Where AI should augment human creativity and where can it replace it? Which end of workflows will it eat first — the front or the back? How can AI extract latent value from firms’ expertise? And how will real-time simulation and prediction at massive scale transform how we perceive the built environment? Author and futurist Greg Lindsay explores how AI and autonomous systems are already upending AEC firms, and what they should do next. | |||
