How to Leverage AI to Compete and Win in Industrialized Construction

The media has reliably obfuscated the relationship between robotics and AI. The truth is that both technologies are important to the industry's future, but they follow different trajectories. Construction has a challenge in that each jobsite is unique and rapidly changing, making it difficult to apply robotics in the same way as the manufacturing industry has in highly structured environments. In the near term, robotics will develop most rapidly for offsite applications, where prefabrication and modularization can be leveraged to tightly control processes and improve quality.
