AI in Construction & Robotics — artificial intelligence for the built environment: BIM, drones, robotics, automation and smart construction ecosystems.
Session 5 of Architecture 6.0 by Ts. Idris Taib examines how AI and robotics reshape construction practices through automation, predictive systems, real‑time monitoring, BIM+AI integration, drones, 3D printing, and autonomous machinery. Framing AI as pragmatic Narrow AI for monitoring, prediction, optimisation, safety, coordination and automation, the publication addresses construction data ecosystems, sustainability, ethics, surveillance and human responsibility. Blending academic teaching, practice and philosophical reflection, it targets architecture students, educators, designers, technologists and future thinkers navigating human‑centered AI in the Cognitive Orchestration Era.
