Are you using AI to truly gain insights or just calling your dashboard “intelligent”?
During the Spotlight Construction & Engineering, we explored a rapidly evolving topic: the sense and nonsense of AI in Finance. Together with Dion Bongaerts (Professor of Financial Technology at Erasmus University) and Remy Verhoeven (AI Lead at Dura Vermeer), we examined both the opportunities and the pitfalls of AI, specifically within the construction and infrastructure sector.
What will be covered
During the session, we explored both the opportunities and the challenges of applying AI in Finance for the construction and engineering sector. Key topics included:
- What AI really is – and what it isn’t
- The difference between supervised and unsupervised learning
- Practical use cases, from invoice recognition to anomaly detection
- How to deal with data quality challenges (“garbage in, garbage out”)
- First steps financial professionals can take to start working with AI
