How to plan and prepare for an AI project
In this fifth article in G&T’s series on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in construction, we consider how to plan and prepare for AI-based technologies. The article outlines the phases a typical AI project might follow, with a particular focus on what steps need to be taken prior to the deployment of AI solutions (addressing issues such as data discontinuity, inconsistency and inaccuracy). Finally, we look at what one London-based tech start-up is doing to de-risk construction programme schedules using Deep Learning AI models.
