In the new world of construction AI seems to be the new tool to help you in getting leads , estimating projects , designing projects, scheduling and communications . I am all for AI as I have used it in helping me outline the process for Marketing the EZestimater app . But I will defer the estimating to a real person . AI which stands for artificial intelligence is just that , intelligence that is artificially made. there definitely is a need for AI in certain circumstances where research on subjects that pertain to the subject in question maybe helpful . But in estimating construction projects that are primarily remodeling of an existing structure AI falls short. There is no research that will help AI to know the structure of the subject building that is being remodeled . The dimensions, structural properties, finishes and location are not something any AI program could research . This is where human interaction will be the most important tool in your tool belt . The EZestimater app is not AI , it gets material from a supplier like Home depot , Lowes , ferguson etc. The pricing is updated twice a week so the estimate is not a guesstimate. Only you as a contractor would know what labor could be involved in remodeling the existing structure . So ultimately there is a need for AI as long as you are aware of its limitations.
