As the engineering and construction industry continues to confront disruptions stemming from COVID-19, shifting project types, increased competition, and a retiring labor force, we are starting to see how the way we work has changed forever.

In the construction industry, the primary use cases for new technologies during the pandemic were remote worksite monitoring to bolster worker safety and progress reporting, supply chain management, and enhanced sustainability for green construction projects.

Here is how I see those technologies continuing to transform the industry, as well as others to come in 2023:

AECCafe Industry Predictions for 2023 – Autodesk

Leading the way to the future of design

Author and media theorist Steven Johnson says, “If you look at history, innovation doesn’t come just from giving people incentives; it comes from creating environments where their ideas can connect.”  When I look toward the future of the industries that design and make the world around us, I’m inspired by the opportunity for collaboration and idea exploration that will shape a brighter tomorrow.

By the middle of the 21st century, we will live, play, and do business in buildings designed to nourish the environment rather than take from it. Our infrastructure networks will be resilient and sustainable, and they will extend to exciting unknown places from the metaverse to the universe. We’ll buy products designed with zero waste that are assembled in smart factories. And Autodesk technology will enable this future, every step of the way.< We’re celebrating the last few decades of Autodesk innovation by envisioning what the future holds. Autodesk already boasts a track record of transforming the industries we serve. But what lies ahead has me even more excited.  >I asked my peers across the organization to share their vision for how design will evolve in years to come. I spoke with Raji Arasu, executive vice president and chief technology officer; Jeff Kinder, executive vice president, design and manufacturing; and Diana Colella, senior vice president, Entertainment & Media Solutions. As I expected, they are dreaming big, and so are their teams.

Freakonomics take on “How Do You Reopen a Country?”

 
May 3rd, 2020 by Sanjay Gangal

Listen to this entire Podcast at:

https://freakonomics.com/podcast/covid-19-reopen/

Here are some excerpts:

Steve Dubner recently called up Steve Levitt, his Freakonomics friend and co-author. He’s an economist at the University of Chicago — which, like all schools, has moved to remote teaching.

DUBNER: So, Levitt, how’s your sheltering in place going, generally?

LEVITT: Not too bad. I’m lucky I didn’t lose my job and I’m healthy. I don’t really like people that much in the first place so I don’t mind being isolated. So I know other people are really suffering, but I’ve been super lucky.

DUBNER: So let me ask you this: How useful would you say that economists have been so far during this pandemic?

LEVITT: I think economists didn’t really have a very big role in the beginning and the middle, in the sense that it was really more like a medical issue or a policy issue. But I think on the exit from quarantine, economists can be really important because the tradeoffs we’re talking about here are the kind of tradeoffs that regular people don’t think about very much, like the tradeoff between life and death versus economic activity. I think there’s also just a lot of room for economists here to be sensible guides as we think about what will work and what won’t work.
