1
Use cases that certainly a lot of our clients are getting interested and excited about are probably into three or four buckets.
2
So the first of those is everything around design productivity.
3
So the thing that's very cool about Gen AI
4
and in fact AI more broadly is it allows you to start to
5
automate some of the tasks which take engineers
6
and architects a lot of time at the moment
7
but don't necessarily add huge amounts of values
8
that might be you know generating design specifications
9
it might be about deciding exactly how high off the ground the door handle should be right
10
and the great thing about design optimization is it creates capacity with engineers
11
and architects to really focus on the highly complex novel problems right which is which is quite an exciting opportunity.
12
I think the other kind of big collection and use cases we see is everything around planning and scheduling.
13
So, yeah, planning and construction planning is typically a bit of a dark art in construction.
14
There is some science behind it, but it's definitely there's elements of being a dark art,
15
and that's borne out with some of the schedule adherence we see typically in construction and infrastructure projects,
16
with projects typically running over budget and over time.
17
There are tools out there and companies out there
18
that actually use AI to learn from historic project delivery to improve the accuracy of scheduled forecasting
19
and actually do that almost in real time.
20
So day by day
21
or week by week you're coming up with a more accurate view of the schedule
22
and actually recommendations on how you might redeploy resources with a schedule.
23
Some of the most exciting opportunities
24
and most disruptive are looking at the impact of environmental impact on design
25
and feasibility so looking at future scenarios where flooding wind storms excessive heat will impact on a concept
26
so as we help clients and we help design
27
and engineering companies plan ahead and think of their optimal design there are
28
so many different scenarios
29
that we can now generate using AI to really think ahead of the future and make sure that these assets,
30
these important buildings that are getting constructed or road infrastructures are going to stand the test of time.
31
The engineering challenges we have are more complex than what we've ever seen before over the next 30 to 50 years,
32
right, when we talk about the decarbonisation challenge,
33
and we're trying to do that when we've got a capacity constraint in the industry we don't have enough engineers, we don't have enough architects,
34
we don't have enough capacity in the construction industry.
35
Gen AI, AI and actually digital tools more broadly are a way of bridging that productivity gap.
36
Look, this isn't the panacea for all solutions, there are going to be limitations for this
37
and I think what we need to be aware of that this technology is not about replacing people, it's about augmenting the process,
38
about making sure that we're using human interaction on the most complex elements
39
and that the basics are done right first time we get to brilliant basics quickly
40
but there's a lot of buzz and excitement rightly
41
so about gen ai and ai at the moment
42
and some of the use cases we've described it have huge potential massively exciting but it's really important to remember that
43
construction is a it's the biggest industry in the world
44
it's one of the most fragmented it's mainly made up of small
45
and medium you know artisanal craftspeople and small construction companies
46
and it's always going to be a hands -on physical business
47
that relies on skilled hard working people on the front line
48
and that that isn't going to change anytime soon right
49
so I think we need to be need to recognize
50
that AI has an opportunity to you know augment the work
51
that we do on a site it has an opportunity to accelerate design
52
and streamline the design process
53
but it's not going to change the kind of physical act
54
of building stuff out on a out on a building site
55
which the other kind of reality check we need to do is
56
that this depends on data as well and this is something
57
that most industries struggle with that construction particularly struggles with
58
because of this level of fragmentation
59
and you need to have a solid data layer to be
60
able to deliver many of these use cases one of the challenges is
61
that the industry from an engineering perspective is based on hours
62
and suddenly there's a potential to do things instantly in a nanosecond at zero real cost how do we monetize
63
that how do we incentivize
64
the technology companies the engineering companies
65
and the owners to collaborate ultimately an owner will benefit
66
when their schedules reduce their cost to build
67
and time to market is reduced and we're talking about projects
68
that are often in the millions if not billions
69
so how do we help the ecosystem the supply chain ecosystem benefit from
70
that transformation because otherwise there'll be as much of a risk of low
71
and slow adoption as there is of going too fast and getting it wrong.
72
The question
73
that I'm hearing a lot is what does this mean for my business is it kind of exciting hype
74
that I can kind of ignore for a few months
75
or is it something that's fundamentally going to change the business
76
and yeah every business will be different right
77
but the way we think about it is as an engineering
78
company how can you use AI to more accurately predict
79
and monitor energy consumption in an office building in real time and offer real -time solutions to optimise energy consumption.
80
I would be looking and guiding organisations towards finding some low -hanging fruit,
81
something that is contained and managed that you can change as a whole system level.
82
Because this isn't just about adopting technology quickly.
83
It's about changing the sales and marketing teams, the incentives for those sales teams to sell a new solution in a different commercial way.
84
And the potential impact of working new in a new way where it's not an hours -based business
85
or a lump sum type business is quite huge.
86
And I can see some companies getting stuck with the enormity of this.
87
So run the whole changes through the entire lifecycle of the services
88
that are provided to the clients through to commercials and billing
89
and make sure the whole team are working in
90
that way almost as a product team and taking that to market and learning from that is really important.
91
Although the technology is relatively new actually the approach to transformation is one
92
that we've we've seen before we're familiar with right so that
93
and there's two dimensions to it the first is you identify the business domains
94
and the use cases where this is going to create most value right
95
so it might be to improve your win rate
96
and tendering it might be to reduce accidents on site it might be to improve engineering productivity
97
but which use cases are going to create real business value
98
and then on the feasibility right
99
so do we have the data to be able to do this do we have the systems and
100
if not is it going to be a significant investment to
101
get the right systems in place do we have um actual skills to help us build uh
102
and administer the technology and either build or integrate with the right models
103
and then from that develop a list of a short list of use cases
104
and go and execute the pilots before scaling right
105
but it's it's very easy to get excited about the technology for technology's sake
106
but it must be grounded in in in business impact at the end the day.
107
I think AEC companies need to focus on the value pools.
108
Where is this going to have the biggest impact but not go too large at the beginning?
109
Really get something proven and working and deployed and get the rest of the organization behind it.
110
That's how I'd be tackling this but also you know engineers like to design,
111
they like to own and build and there's going to be a preference to own
112
and build this technology and I think that existing technology companies
113
and startups are pure play invested in this area already and have already been moving in this direction.
114
So adopting and working with the right technology partners from the outset is really important.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
