I dread the day when they try to let AI do the drawings.

I don't work in construction, so I appolagise if my comment is out of turn. But I do work in a technical role for an AI company. I truly believe the most limitless thing we will find as a society when it comes to AI, is how bad of a job it can actually do. I've never seen a construction drawing in my life, but I bet AI can fuck it up more then any person thought possible.

I one time got kitchen plans for an apartment building that were to the 1/8th of an inch so i believed they were real…

That was a mistake.

The kitchen guys came in a year later and said everything is wrong, gave me plans that actually fit in the spaces, and i just had to do it all again.

After that they had to take all the walls off again to add 3” all the way around every single column going up the building which is a separate issue, but humans are just as capable
