Speaker(s): Denis Serkin, Richard R. Volack,
Richard Volack, Partner and Chair of the firm’s Cyber Security & Data Privacy practice will co-present “Evolving Standard of Care: How AI Adoption Has Become a Risk Management Imperative for AEC” alongside Tom Scarangello of Thornton Tomasetti and Amir Ganaba of Boston Consulting Group at ENR FutureTech. Denis Serkin, Partner and Chair of the firm’s International practice will moderate the panel.
Generative AI, digital twins, robotic inspection, and predictive analytics are no longer pilots—they’re changing expectations for how projects are estimated, managed, documented, monitored, analyzed, and delivered. They are creating a new baseline of professional performance and client expectations that blurs the line between innovation and obligation. For example, Generative-design algorithms now out-perform manual iterations in analyzing structural efficiency and cost; Predictive safety models flag risk conditions in real time, redefining due diligence and possibly creating liability exposure for firms that don’t adopt them; Autonomous drone inspections provide evidence standards that are hard to match, if the same tasks are performed manually. This conversation grounds FutureTech attendees in the realities of implementation, bridging technical innovation, legal concerns and cautions, industry research, practical leadership, and real-world applications.
