Content

Artificial Intelligence is enabling opportunities for modern methods of construction to improve delivery efficiency and safety: identifying safety hazards from site CCTV, reactive construction scheduling, off-site construction component assembly simulation, remote inspection using virtual reality (VR), optimized labour management, cost overrun predictions ChatGPT, built on GPT-3 technology, is a large language model flourishing in its contextual language competencies.

This enables it to learn from text data (over numerical or visual) and provide human-like responses with immediate value to the user. Rather than traditional AI models being only useful to the one task they have been trained on, GPT-3 is proficient (to a degree) in any task involving text.
