About this Event
Every construction professional knows that experience, intuition, and a healthy dose of common sense can mean the difference between spectacular success and abject failure…for both a project and a company.
Where then, does artificial intelligence fit in? Is it reliable? Does it replace people? Is it the key to scalability or does it merely serve to provide a false sense of security?
And if there is a place for AI, how can it be safely and wisely implemented?
Few topics divide and fascinate the construction community as much as the use of artificial intelligence in what is an industry that literally serves as a monument to human collaboration.
In this session, Rhonda Huismann and Eliot Wagonheim will provide an overview of the possibilities and pitfalls of AI contract review technology, what to look for, what to expect, and how to stay on top of one of the most intriguing, frustrating, challenging, and captivating issues of 2025.
Learning objectives and key takeaways:
1. The capabilities of AI in contract review
2. Decision points for each company considering whether or not to implement an AI solution
3. The limits and guardrails of smart AI policy
4. How best to implement AI while preserving and building institutional knowledge
