Risks and Trust of AI Tech in Construction?
Over the last couple week’s I saw a couple (more) posts on LinkedIn talking about the perceived dangers/ risks/ etc of AI & Tech in the Construction Industry.
Yael Meretyk Hanan (Co-Founder & CEO at Pelles.ai) shared a post with the image above…. I guess way back when we should have never taken the chance on cars as Horse & Carriage was a solid technology…
Then Sai Chidura (President of P2C Construction Services) shared this post:
