#125 Artificial Intelligence in Project Planning


Listen Later

New software using AI is enabling planners to identify options for engineering projects that are beyond the realms of human imagination. Traditionally, solutions are studied individually at great time and cost but budgets and timelines are more constrained than ever before. At the same time planners are being asked to incorporate more factors into identifying the best solutions from emissions profiles to social value. One thing we do have more of today though is data and in this episode we hear that AI can help the industry to use it more effectively in the very early stages of projects to explore more and create better solutions.
