S2E4 - Building differently: AI facing the challenges of construction
Did you know that two competing electricity companies agreed to collaborate on developing an AI tool, simply because they realized that counting electrical outlets on a blueprint offers no competitive advantage? In this episode recorded live at the All In 2025 event, William Gélina Sylvestre and Thierry-Eliot Villeneuve from the Association de la construction du Québec (ACQ), accompanied by Hugues from Explorer, reveal the fascinating paradoxes of the Quebec construction industry.
Estim.ai Webinar - January 29, 2026 - Quotes and Curtain Walls
Project estimating is often a bottleneck in construction: slow, manual and error-prone.
This webinar is aimed at managers, estimators and contractors who want to modernize this process, save time and win more contracts.
The tool will be presented as applied to curtain walls, doors, and windows, searching within a quote, and finally, the roadmap for adding different trades (construction and manufacturing).
S2E1 - Building smart cities: when AI redesigns architecture
In this first episode of Season 2 of IA du neuf, we explore how artificial intelligence is changing the way we design our homes and evaluate our neighborhoods. Did you know that in Montreal, living near the subway increases the value of your property, but in Dallas, it's exactly the opposite? Or that AI has to "relearn" architecture differently in Japan, where residents walk through their bedrooms to access other rooms, a practice unthinkable in the West?
