How can we make build buildings more sustainably while also reducing construction time and costs?
Climate+ Podcast hosts Janne Aas-Jakobsen of CONSIGLI for a deep dive into the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the construction industry. She emphasizes the significant opportunities presented by AI to create better buildings for future societies, suggesting that the industry has yet to fully harness its potential.
Janne encourages young professionals to embrace AI technologies, highlighting how these innovations can streamline processes that have traditionally relied on multiple engineers and consultants. Instead of adhering to established practices, which often lead to inefficiencies, she advocates for a fresh approach that leverages AI to enhance productivity and reduce costs.
Janne also discusses specific AI solutions that can revolutionize project delivery. For instance, she describes a system where AI can autonomously generate a fully coordinated Building Information Model (BIM) by directly analyzing architectural models, eliminating the need for conventional software tools. This significant shift reduces the reliance on numerous engineers and consultants, allowing for quicker project turnaround times. However, she notes that resistance to change persists due to entrenched business models that benefit from maintaining large teams. By focusing on the integration of AI in these processes, Janne believes the industry can break free from outdated practices and produce quality buildings designed with a focus on human needs and sustainability.
