- Technology
The definition of smart building has evolved since 1981 when the term was originally coined, and it has transformed well beyond lighting and HVAC systems. In the age of artificial intelligence, the possibilities for even smarter buildings are endless. Technology advancements in hardware, software and now generative AI brings new context and capabilities that require rethinking what a smart building really is. Today, an AI-enabled smart building can incorporate the use of IoT devices for real-time data capture, sensor technology for utilization metrics, intelligent automation for accomplishing day-to-day facilities tasks, and predictive analytics to optimize performance. AI will enable the building to leverage operational data to inform decisions and respond to the immediate and future needs of the occupants.
Dive into the world of smart buildings with industry experts Darlene Pope, President of Planon North America, Dr. Rick Huijbregts, Global Lead of Smart Cities at Stantec, and Pay Wu, President and Co-Founder of MWBE Unite. Together, our host and guests take us on a journey to discover how we should be thinking about Gen AI’s impact on legacy real estate systems, and how to harness AI and Machine Learning to inform the future of the industry.
