Wang’s course on AI in construction didn’t just teach students to use artificial intelligence; it equipped them with the skills to research, understand, and even communicate with AI by coding. Initially hesitant, students quickly realized the benefits of programming, as it allowed them to interact with AI on a deeper level. AI’s problem-solving capabilities are vast, from monitoring construction sites for potential hazards to analyzing project trends and facilitating compliance with extensive safety regulations. While AI isn’t flawless, the time it saves is invaluable, especially in tasks like navigating complex building codes. Wang believes AI won’t replace construction managers but can take over dangerous tasks, reducing fatalities in the industry. The course left students eager for more, as they recognized the immediate, practical applications of AI in their field. This experience underscored that AI is not a distant possibility but a current reality in construction management.
