In our prior articles on artificial intelligence (AI) in construction, we discussed machine learning, image recognition, sensors-on-site, building information modeling, and smart contracts. As we noted, significant legal issues will arise with the increasing implementation of these technologies. These issues can be grouped generally into: (1) risk allocation; (2) ownership and protection

Artificial Intelligence in Construction Part II: Image Recognition and Sensors-on-Site
By Joseph Cleves, Jr. on
Posted in Artificial Intelligence
In this article, we continue our series on artificial intelligence (AI) in construction. Here we address image recognition and sensors-on-site. This technology uses cameras and other sensors to assess vast quantities of video, pictures, and other recorded conditions from worksites. Such technology has the potential to: (1) monitor worksite conditions for safety risks and hazards;…
Artificial Intelligence in Construction?

Posted in Artificial Intelligence, Technology
While the spread of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the construction sector is expected to be modest in the immediate future, a shift is coming. Stakeholders can no longer afford to see AI as pertinent only to other industries – engineering and construction will need to catch up with AI applications. This is the only way…
