Anil Sawhney Ph.D. PMP FHEA FRICS, Head of Sustainability at RICS, gives an overview of AI and its current state in construction.  He covers what it is, the types of AI, the benefits and challenges, some use case ideas such as in construction documentation and how Chat GPT can enhance BIM usage, and future trends and developments.

Abdul-Majeed Mahamadu Ph.D. MCIOB MRICS, associate professor at University College London and cost consultant, follows up with a use-case scenario on ICMS (International Cost Management Standards) for cost benchmarking.
