#344 AI in construction: Potential, obstacles and success

The BuiltSmart Hub podcast ‘AI in Construction: More Efficient
Planning, Construction and Building Management’ discusses the
comprehensive potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in all
phases of the building life cycle – from planning and execution
to operation. Specific application examples are cited,
including improved planning quality, increased efficiency in
construction, optimised resource management, risk minimisation,
precise quality assurance and life cycle-oriented building
management. Furthermore, the text highlights key challenges in
the introduction of AI, such as poor data quality and
availability, high investment costs, lack of expertise and
cultural reservations, and proposes strategies for successful
integration that emphasise a clear strategic roadmap and
interdisciplinary collaboration.
