Someone used ChatGPT to redline a construction contract. The wording looked like it came straight from a lawyer. Only problem? It was arguing against their own position.In today's episode of Bricks and Bytes, we had Michael Vardaro, a construction attorney with 30 years of experience based in New York City, and we got to learn about how AI is reshaping construction law, why it's a powerful tool but a terrible replacement for professional judgment, and the groundbreaking new AAA AI arbitrator that could change how disputes get resolved... and much more.Tune in to find out about:✅ How AI tools like Firmus AI are catching scope conflicts and potential change orders before they turn into litigation✅ The real story behind the AAA's new AI arbitrator and what it actually means for construction disputes✅ Why the "AI will kill lawyer fees" headline is misleading, and what the CAD revolution taught us about technology and professional services✅ The hidden danger of AI meeting minutes in construction, and how they could actually make your legal position worse🎧 Watch now on Youtube and Spotify.
