Manchester itself seems to have a different skyline every time you visit.\u00a0 There\u2019s the \u2018levelling up agenda\u2019, the supply chain is different, clients, projects, etc. Said sponsor was right, it did feel like a missed opportunity.\u00a0 We put together a committee to help shape the themes for the event.\u00a0 Reached out to other sponsors and exhibitors and the ball started rolling for what looks set to be a brilliant show.<\/p>\n<p>As for why Manchester specifically, selfishly I love the city and Manchester Central is a fantastic venue.\u00a0 We run other events here so knew the logistics.\u00a0 But we\u2019ve also had a lot of support from organisations like BDP and the University of Salford to help get things off the ground.\u00a0 In fact, I first pitched the idea to some of our now committee members at Old Trafford watching the Twenty20.<\/p>\n<p>But in truth we could have picked Liverpool, Leeds, Newcastle, or any number of other great cities in the North. We were spoilt for choice.<\/p>\n<h3>There are a number of high profile AECO companies exhibiting and in attendance at DCN, such as Autodesk, Bluebeam, and Openspace. Which panels or speeches would you recommend to attendees?<\/h3>\n<p>I think they\u2019re all brilliant!\u00a0 But if you had to pick a few I\u2019d start with our opening panel session in the auditorium: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalconstructionnorth.com\/event\/building-tomorrow-technology-innovation-and-the-future-of-the-built-environment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Building Tomorrow: Technology, Innovation, and the Future of the Built Environment<\/a>.\u00a0 We\u2019ve got a great lineup of speakers to share their successes, failures and challenges on the subject; Alistair Kell (BDP), Sagal Rooble (Chetwoods), Dale Sinclair (WSP), Laura Brown (Bowmer + Kirkland).<\/p>\n<p>Another must-see is our opening session on the Information Management Stage: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalconstructionnorth.com\/event\/call-for-action-refreshed-approach-to-the-uk-im-mandate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Call for action: Refreshed approach to the UK IM Mandate<\/a>.\u00a0 Nima will be announcing their call to action for the new Information Management Initiative.<\/p>\n<p>AtkinsRealis will be talking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalconstructionnorth.com\/event\/vsa%C2%B2-transforming-remote-site-management-with-multi-sensor-ai-analysis-and-autonomous-robotics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VSA\u00b2: Transforming remote site management with multi-sensor AI analysis and autonomous robotics<\/a> on the Innovation Hub.\u00a0 You might get to say hello to everyone\u2019s favourite robot dog too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalconstructionnorth.com\/events\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">see the full programme online here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>We are increasingly seeing Artificial Intelligence deployed across a variety of functions in the construction sector- what is the most unexpected use of AI that you have seen?<\/h3>\n<p>What\u2019s the most unexpected use of AI in construction?\u00a0 Honestly, all of it.\u00a0 I think the applications of AI and the speed at which some of it has been deployed has been truly remarkable.\u00a0 Thinking back to the days of the BIM mandate and when we first launched DCW, I don\u2019t think anywhere near as many people were ready to embrace new ways of working.\u00a0 I think it shows just how far we\u2019ve come on this data journey and our approach to new technologies in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>But with this does come a cause for some concern and reflection.\u00a0 AI has without doubt captured the zeitgeist of the past few years.\u00a0 You can\u2019t move without seeing something linked or even loosely associated with it.\u00a0 Unlike other hyped technologies like VR\/AR, 3D printing, and robotics, the implications of AI feel genuinely infinite.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think many of us imagined the impact of the internet at the time, but our world now would be unrecognisable if we were stood back in the year 2000.\u00a0 I believe AI will be the same.\u00a0 Humans have evolved through efficiency.\u00a0 It\u2019s why we love AI.\u00a0 I think we need to be mindful of the ripples it will create.<\/p>\n<h3>Which use of AI do you think will have the greatest impact on the sector in the years to come?<\/h3>\n<p>On a brighter note, there are definitely some incredible AI applications in the field. A favourite example is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalconstructionnorth.com\/event\/if-only-bdp-knew-what-bdp-knows-the-rise-of-chatbdp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BDP\u2019s ChatBDP, which Alistair Kell will showcase at the event<\/a>, demonstrating how generative AI streamlines staff access to their own preexisting knowledge bases.\u00a0 It\u2019s a relatively simple idea that uses technology to augment the work already being done.\u00a0 Freeing people up to do what they\u2019re best at.<\/p>\n<p>I asked ChatGPT the same question and it had its own views.\u00a0 But maybe just come along to Digital Construction North and find out for yourself.<\/p>\n<h4>There are still some tickets available for Digital Construction North- <a
