• AI can optimize the allocation of resources on a project,
taking into account schedules, required proficiency, location,
and worker preferences.
• AI can assist with project and construction scheduling,
analysis of project data, and predictive risk management.
• Virtual assistants can help schedule meetings, take minutes,
adjust schedules, and keep track of tasks and responsibilities.
• AI can help interpret contracts and flag non-standard
language.
• Designers and architects can quickly model and adjust
building and infrastructure designs, leading to more
optimized designs.
LEARN TO BUILD AND MAINTAIN AI
AI needs human intervention to help build, train, and maintain it.
When AI doesn't have human oversight, it quickly goes off the
rails. This means that working with AI will be a human job for
quite a while. Better yet, women can get involved with AI
governance to help correct some of the bias and ethics
issues.
If you want to go one step further, start learning how to build AI
and work on developing the next generation of generative AIs.
Plenty of courses are available on how to code AI, or you can
self-study using chat boards and YouTube.
GENERATIVE AI MIGHT REPLACE YOU,
BUT YOU WILL BE OK
If there's one takeaway from all of this, it's that thinking about the
future of work and what skills you need to succeed is vital to
navigating the uncertain world of generative AI. Your job might be
replaced with AI, but you will still have a role.
