In an article written in The Urban Developer, Kapitol's Director Andrew Deveson discusses how much the construction industry is ripe for disruption and change from AI and innovation.
The discussion was part of a panel discussion at the 2024 Urbanity Summit entitled 'Data to Development -applying real time AI in property.'
“Our industry is so ripe for disruption because it’s been so disjointed and there’s so much opportunity,” Andrew said.
“A lot of this stuff (AI) is Beta still but we’re all in because we know it’s only going to get better.
“This time last year, we had an IT manager and this year we have a CTO (chief technology officer) with a team of 10 people.”
Andrew also said he believed, with the speed at which AI was progressing, the spectre of “robo workers” in the development and construction industry was on the horizon.
“The cost of a worker that you have to hire at the moment in commercial construction is pretty high … so, yeah, I think it’s pretty feasible.”
