Artificial intelligence (AI) is making waves across all sorts of industries and construction is no exception. While much of the attention has been on AI’s role in design, project management and efficiency, its potential to revolutionise site safety might just be the most exciting development yet.
For years, construction has been one of the most hazardous industries, with risks ranging from falls and equipment-related accidents to structural failures, but could we be at a turning point where AI-driven protocols and analytics help to predict and prevent such dangers? Keep reading to find out more.
Over the past few months, we’ve witnessed a race in the launch of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology that has been trained to interact with humans in a conversational way.
Natural language models like Open AI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Bard can produce pieces of creative writing, translate copy, summarise lengthy texts, access vast amounts of data to answer queries and have a human-like conversation. Whilst experimenting with these technologies can be both useful and fun, this has got us wondering whether AI might soon be taking on other creative work such as designing a building (or perhaps it is already)? Take a look at what we found out in this week’s blog.
