What is an AI
Allowing machine to think or do things for you based on the information that you input inside the
system
“ Automation “ , Helps in automating tasks for people and this process makes people’s life easier
1) Calculator 3) Home Roomba 5) Google Now
History of 1997 2011 2015
AI 1970 2002 2012
2) IBM Deep
4) IBM Watson 6) Amazon Echo
Blue
Calculator
IBM DEEP BLUE
Home

Software
based AI
Different
types of AI
1) Reactive – has no memory , only responds to stimuli
IBM’s Deep Blue, a machine that beat chess Grandmaster Garry

Kasparov in 1997
2) Limited Memory
Uses memory to learn and improve its responses – Present Day AI
3) Theory of Mind
Understands emotions and the needs intelligent entitites
4) Self aware – Has human like intelligence
Humanoid
Applications of AI
at present
Self Driving Cars – Deep and Machine
Learning
Social Media Chat Bots – Deep Learning
Content Recommendation algorithm – Machine

Learning
Humanoid Robot – Deep and Machine

Learning
Functionality of
AI
Software
Deep Learning – Decision taken by machine
Python - used in many automation programs as well

as used along with R programming ( Data
visualization ) to classify and categorize data ( Big
Data) , Helps in data analysis
Hardware
Internet of Things - The Internet of things (IoT)

describes the network of physical objects
—“things”—that are embedded with sensors,
software, and other technologies for the purpose of
connecting and exchanging data with other devices
and systems over the Internet
Raspberry PI
Machine Learning – Helps in automation

AI history in construction
1) ArchiCAD , 1984 – First Ever developed Cad Program
2) GIS , 1990 – Urban Planning
2) Building Design Advisor , 1993 – Predecessor to Etabs and other BIM based softwares
3) BIM 360 , 2015 – Risk Management
4) SMARTCONSTRUCTION by Komatsu , 2015 – Automated Construction machines
5) Microsoft HoloLens – Augmented reality , 2015
5) CM Labs’ Vortex construction equipment simulators , 2020 , visual training

Applications of AI in Construction
Industry
1) AI powered Project planning and Risk Mitigation
2) Building Information Modelling
3) Big Data
4) Automated heavy machines
5) Surveying Drones
The Future 1) Lower job opportunities that has to do with operating machines
2) Big Companies would be able to cut down costs by saving money on wages
of AI in 3) Reduces risk on site
Construction 4) Improves Productivity
Industry 5) People can't totally rely on AI due to it’s unstability , Hence people should work
along with AI to automate things and get better results without any failure such
metro trains
AI Ethics
AI Systems are unreliable , Hence require some one in control
Invasions of privacy – Data Leaks
unexplainable, or unjustifiable outcomes - In some cases, machine learning models may generate their
results by operating on high-dimensional correlations that are beyond the interpretive capabilities of
human reasoning
