AI: Risk & Potential Beyond the Hype
Time and Location TBA
Artificial Intelligence seems to be everywhere, from ChatGPT to Procore to Microsoft, and it’s creating new risks for contractors. In this session, SMACNA’s AI consultant Hugh Seaton will cut through the hype and talk about what is really a risk, and what really isn’t, and what you can do about it at the individual, team and company level.
In this no-nonsense session, you’ll learn how AI works, why that understanding will give you a sense of when to trust AI tools, and when not to, how to manage “shadow AI,” and some simple techniques to (mostly) avoid getting garbage from your chatbots and assistants.
