Hello Project AI enthusiasts,

What happens when a leading architectural firm takes a methodical approach to AI adoption? In this thought-provoking conversation with Pavan Birdi, Senior Associate at Pascal + Watson, we explore the strategic implementation of artificial intelligence in architectural practice—particularly within risk-sensitive sectors like aviation and defense.

Pavan reveals why Pascal Watson chose a more cautious and strategic approach than many competitors in embracing AI, carefully weighing environmental impacts, cost considerations, and risk factors. "We've been quite deliberate in our adoption because we've just been looking at the landscape, reviewing what's worked, what hasn't worked," he explains. This measured approach has now led them to implement Omnichat, an expert multi-model platform leveraging various AI models, with a phased rollout starting with key individuals across departments.
