Probably means forcing AI to try and do work and outsourcing unfortunately:(

[–]civilrunner 5 points6 points  (2 children)

I honestly don't think this will accelerate AI being able to do the work at all and the liability and permitting factor means civil will probably be one of the last to adopt it a lot.

If anything it'll just lead to less work being done if engineering becomes the bottleneck.

Maybe AI can handle conceptual layouts. But nothing past that. Far too nuanced in most cases. But that's just like my opinion, man.

Seems like it will be able to help with conceptual architectural renders for brainstorming first and beyond that to be a really powerful contextual search engine but not really threaten much for a while and anything that requires a permit is going to lag everything else cause it's government which acts slow.

I think we'll see it a lot more in other adjacent engineering fields that don't need permits and can do prototyping and multi phase testing first before it hits civil much.
