An AI‑Centric Approach to AEC - Peter Nabhan (S2‑13)
Description
In this episode of ENHANCE, Andy Richardson sits down with engineer Peter Nabhan to explore how AI is transforming architecture, engineering, and construction. Peter shares the experiences that led him into civil engineering and how that purpose drives his approach to innovation across the AEC sector.
You’ll hear practical ways to use tools like Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, and ChatGPT to boost productivity—summarizing emails, analyzing PDFs, and automating routine tasks—while addressing privacy and job concerns. Peter emphasizes that AI should augment, not replace, human expertise, and why reskilling is essential.
He outlines a clear framework for adoption: target high-impact pain points, pilot with diverse users, ensure system integration, and measure outcomes. The conversation also covers leadership, culture change, and sustainability, including LEED-informed practice and smart business decision-making. If you work in AEC, this concise playbook will help you adopt AI with intention and impact.
