Industry-First Summit to Explore the AI Frontier

Artificial intelligence has become a major topic of conversation – and in some quarters, concern – within the AEC industry. From industry conferences to happy hours, when engineers are gathered, the same questions are being discussed. What can AI do? What will the future of engineering look like in an AI-centric world? How is AI an improvement over human-driven endeavor? What are its limitations? As AI becomes ubiquitous, should our industry be concerned?

Those questions and more are on the agenda for BST Global’s upcoming AI Summit, a first of its kind gathering of leading authorities within the AI space. Scheduled for April 16-18 in Clearwater Beach, Florida, this summit’s speakers will include leaders from some of the world’s preeminent AEC firms, who will share their views on what the future holds for the industry as AI continues to both expand and improve.

On the agenda are discussions on topics such as:

• Achieving AI-driven business transformation
• Applying generative AI and ChatGPT in the real world
• Deploying AI at scale
• Crafting a data-strategy foundation for your firm’s future
• Fostering the data-driven consultancy of tomorrow by leveraging AI and machine learning
• Exploring how large language models (LLMs) are becoming the new AI disruptors
• Strengthening and building resiliency in cybersecurity
• Discovering how to put the right trust, governance and privacy practices in place
• Attracting, developing and retaining the right talent and skills for your AI and big data future
• Meeting the ESG imperative with big data
• Reimagining the AEC industry as a “data” business and introducing innovative business models

This is a critical moment in time, both for the AEC industry and for its firms. During ACEC’s four-part AI webinar series last year, one speaker put it best when he said that AI won’t take your job won’t take your job away, but a competitor using AI will. It’s an important distinction, and it is one of the key drivers behind this upcoming summit. The future is here, and our industry is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the wealth of new opportunity born of AI. There are important conversations that need to be had about emerging technology and its impact on our industry – and many of those conversations will be happening this April in Florida at BST Global’s AI Summit.

Spaces are limited, so register now.
