Episode 18 – From ICSC to Everyday Life with Justin Korinis

Episode 23 – Nicholas Childs PART 2: Slowing Down to Go Faster with AI, Digital Twins, and the Future of the Built Environment

In Part 2 of our conversation with Nicholas Childs of Autodesk, we go deeper into how AI, automation, and digital twins are reshaping the built environment, and what firms should be doing right now to prepare. Nicholas breaks down why automation must come before AI, how messy data can derail even the best technology strategies, and why digital twins don’t need to be perfect to deliver real business value. We explore the tension between probabilistic AI and deterministic outcomes, the role of standards, and how firms can clean up their “messy garage” before jumping headfirst into AI adoption. Listen in as Greg and Nicholas talk about outcome‑based BIM, reality capture and spatial AI, the rise of smaller agile firms, and why the future belongs to organizations that optimize what they already do well, rather than trying to “do more with less.” This is the show built to build what's next.
