S11, EP 304 - What AI Does for Your Humble Construction Podcaster

from Build America Podcast · host Scott Jennings

In this episode of the Build America Podcast, Scott Jennings takes a practical, no-nonsense look at how artificial intelligence is already changing the way construction professionals work. From summarizing complex legal cases and analyzing hundreds of geotechnical boring logs to checking advanced engineering math and supporting doctoral-level research, Scott shares real-world examples of how tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude are being used today. He explains what AI really is in plain language, where it adds value, where it can fall short, and why verifying results is critical. Whether you’re an engineer, contractor, estimator, educator, or simply curious about technology’s role in construction, this episode breaks down why AI is less about hype and more about staying relevant in a changing industry.#ArtificialIntelligence #AIinConstruction #ConstructionTechnology #EngineeringPodcast #BuildAmericaPodcast #ConstructionInnovation #AIforEngineers #DigitalConstruction #FutureOfConstruction #ConstructionLeadership #TechInEngineering #PodcastEpisode
