Most conversations about AI in construction focus on what the tools can do. This one focuses on what it actually takes to use them.

Marcus Turner has been building with AI tools in real construction and knowledge-work contexts for years. He is not predicting the future of AI. He is living in the present tense of it.

In this conversation:

• Why domain knowledge is the multiplier and AI only amplifies what you already understand
• What "context engineering" means and why most people are still using AI like a search engine
• How builders can start experimenting today without feeling like they are already behind
• What a personal AI agent stack looks like when someone actually builds one

The industry is not short on AI opinions. It is short on people who have gotten their hands dirty with it. Marcus is one of them.
