In this week’s pod, we welcomed Rita Arrigo to discuss AI in Infrastructure and how it is going to change our cities.As a natural storyteller excited by the opportunities the tech world brings, Rita can translate complex technical ideas across the ‘IT divide’ to those less tech-minded, an enthusiastic advocate and sought-after speaker for many years on all thing's innovation and digital.The main topics we discussed on the podcast were as follows:
AI, Machine Learning and Spatial Computing are moving at a fast pace
Most construction projects are using paper based documents on site despite the prevalence of digital technology
There is not enough diversity in engineering which has led to a lack of challenging the status quo which is stifling disruption
Digital Twin seeks to connect the past and predict the future
AI can be used by governments to help them monitor and achieve COP 26/27 commitments
Maturing of toolsets will give us higher capability and reduce the workload
CEO’s now need to understand the digital technology their company provides rather than simply relying on the technical experts
AI will never replace human interactions
Blockchain help accelerate investment cycles for companies
People always need visualizations – AI will support and enable this
Technology will change the way we collect and store information on projects which will make the traditional “filing” system redundant
We don’t perceive the world, we only see what we perceive
