The launch of chatGPT made artificial intelligence (AI), and in particular generative AI, the hottest topic in the market. Everybody has an opinion about it, ranging from starstruck awe to existential fear. Industry, construction, and infrastructure are no exceptions; digitalisation is ubiquitous, and with digital data comes the opportunity to use AI.

Amid the turbulence of the stern wave behind chatGPT, it is easy to lose sight of the wide range of powerful tools in the AI toolbox. In this talk, Elin will guide us through the turbulence and explain how mathematics and statistics applied to large amounts of data can automate tasks and processes, disrupt business models, redefine search and research, and fuel innovation of new products and services. All this without posing a fundamental threat to most jobs. She then invites the audience to reflect on the flipsides of artificial intelligence, such as responsibility, discriminatory practices, cyber security, and sustainability.

The challenges in large multidisciplinary projects, such as the Norrbotniabanan, shows the importance of common standards for object and model files, but also the impact of human factors on coordination and planning. Today it’s a large widespread but incomplete use of AD and its consequences. It’s also a overreliance on software and I want to highlight the need for real communication in BIM work.

We continue to embrace new technologies, all the way from scripts, automation, apps, clouds, to artificial intelligence. The benefits at the first glance all seem clear - promise to save time and drive efficiency. However, the reality often doesn't align with these expectations. Delays, overbudgets, and outdated business models still hinder progress. To address these challenges, it's essential to openly discuss the issues and seek solutions together. I believe that redefining collaboration across all stakeholders - owners, designers, contractors, suppliers, operators, and more - can unlock real value for everyone. But transformation requires us to rethink our approach, share risks, and move away from conservative models that have held us back. Only then can we truly transform the industry.

This presentation explores how Skanska is advancing project delivery through BIM by unlocking the full potential of information within models. With quantities and survey data at the core, the focus is on creating efficient workflows, overcoming challenges, and delivering a better product to end client and society. To navigate through industry various frameworks and standards and to address project needs, we developed our own package of requirements, KMI, which has become our solution for improving processes and ensuring successful project execution. However, requirements alone are not enough. People play central role in achieving the desired results. Collaboration, understanding, and the ability to adapt are key to making model-based workflows successful and ensuring better project outcomes.

For the past 25 years, Gehl has been leveraging human-centric data to gain deeper insights into life in public spaces across more than 350 cities worldwide. In this session Adam will share some of the methodologies they use, and the tangible impact data-driven approaches have had on urban design, decision-making, and, most importantly, people. Adam will present three concrete case studies demonstrating how data has been instrumental in shaping projects globally. One example will illustrate how layering socio-demographic data with observational insights from public spaces provided a deeper understanding of urban life in Copenhagen—revealing hidden potentials and strengthening decision-making for clients. Additionally, he will discuss experiences in engaging diverse user groups through digital tools, enabling a richer understanding of the subjective, experiential qualities of urban spaces.
