How to tell, in three words, that you're about to read something that is incredibly stupid.

"We find the critical role of technology in supporting
business growth is increasingly being recognised."

I, too, have a computer at work.

"Optical recognition paired with visual data analytics can identify hazards in real time, reducing potential accidents on-site"

Imaging falling off the side of a building because the VR headset told you to.

LMFAO.

I dunno, guys. Maybe concentrate on what is clearly the bigger fucking problem with your industry first - not understanding how long it takes to do a thing and what it will cost to do it.

This seems somewhat more fundamental to your success than whether or not you've fitted out thet site office with Vision Pro headsets.

"The highest priority use case is using AI to assess and identify profitable project opportunities"

Right. Go back a few steps.

How does this gel with the data you're giving it that is wrong half the time?

"Every time we budget and timeline a project, it ends up being wrong. But if we teach this to the computer it will get it right"

????? Sure, man.

"Effectively using generative AI will require finding more people with skills in this emerging area"

Moving on.

BEHOLD THE EFFICIENCY.

ONLY ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS MORE THAN IT SHOULD HAVE!

I am sad to report the duck cost $100m more than expected.

"More specialised technologies and those with fewer direct use cases in construction and engineering had significantly lower levels of usage, such as blockchain (25%)"

Show me the one in four construction companies using blockchain. Who are they?

"“Even within the organisation, roles are constantly being redefined, meaning employees can find it difficult to absorb some of the new technologies. It will be a journey in terms of education and realising opportunities for creativity, even with automation and robotics"


No one knows what they should be doing or how they should be doing it because we keep finding new shiny toys to throw at them and demand they get used why is my workforce so inefficient?

" AI as a tool that could simulate workflows and identify solutions to conduct advanced feasibility studies incorporating the social elements in the design stage that are often difficult to quantify, such as how to minimise noise and aximise natural light in a unit complex"

Both those things can - literally - be quantified.

@MattHatton that’s some serious load-bearing capacity in the “could”

This document keeps talking about "mobile apps" but has not once (I am 30 pages in) offered anything more than those two words to describe what they mean.

MattHatton,

I am howling like a monkey at this.

Right. So. $100m in revenue turned into $20m profit.

20c on the dollar.

Chucking more computer at it raised $1.4m extra revenue and $200,000 profit.

Which is...less than 20c in the dollar.

HOW IS THAT BETTER?

Oh, yes, also it made such a small fraction of a percent difference to the outcome that it could probably also be explained by a simple margin of error comparing surveys.

“Even if you put information into a repository, people may not know how to find it. Previously, we would have to do a keyword search and parse through many documents. Now, with the use of AI, the return of information is much more relevant, making the knowledge search process faster.”

....let me ask you this. When you're talking to your A*I** knowledge base. Are you using certain words that pertain to the information you are seeking?

jpm,
@jpm@aus.social avatar

@MattHatton to be fair, every knowledge-base kind of system eventually becomes a write-only database where you just dump all your documentation and say “yep it’s in the knowledge base” where nobody will ever look at it again

"Sunway has also been using AI technology, paired with cloud,
to improve worker safety. Previously, static images of noncompliances were captured by the users using their mobile phones and shared within the site for safety monitoring. However, this process was inefficient as it did not allow for real-time interventions in safety"

Gareth was too busy taking a photo of Steven falling off the platform to tell Steven that he shouldn't be on the platform in the first place. AI will make this better.

Our new systems are generating unmanagable amounts of data.

What if we put more systems on top of those systems to manage that output?

"Yes, if we could somehow make this thing relevent to my work it would, indeed, be relevent to my work"
