SUMMARY:Architecture Matters: AI Talk Moderated by Phil Bernstein
DESCRIPTION:The Architecture Matters Series is presented by McLaughlin Insurance. This event is free for all!  \nProgram Description: \nArtificial intelligence is the next disruptive technology buffeting the practice of architecture\, following close on the heels of BIM. But unlike BIM\, AI seems to be everywhere\, pressing upon the public\, clients\, collaborators\, builders\, and regulators as well as architects. Rather than react to every breathless article and social media post about our future robot overlords\, how should architects think about these questions and formulate an intelligent response? This discussion is designed to introduce basic concepts of AI\, contextualize its evolution in architecture\, and analyze its implications in an effort to equip architects to think strategically about the technologically enabled future. \nLearning Objectives:  \n\nExplore and evaluate the evolutionary trajectory of technology in the AECO industry through the lenses of use of tools and specific practice experience.\nIdentify key technological\, social\, economic\, and business trends potentially affected by the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence.\nAssess and analyze the impact of technological disruption on design firms through the examination of business strategy and models\nSpeculate on professional and practice futures\, particularly value propositions of design practice\, of autonomous computation. Identify opportunities and threats.\n\n1.0 LU

SUMMARY:Speaking the Same Language:  The Common Materials Framework
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Architecture Matters Professional Development Series \nPresented by Existing Conditions\, Organized by the Committee on the Environment \n1.0 HSW \nHow do we speak about and evaluate the sustainable attributes of building materials? The current model is a mix of ideas and goals regarding the definition of a sustainable material. Sustainable material certifications have become difficult to navigate. Confusion rules the market as architects and manufacturers attempt to answer all the questions and goals of the various approaches to sustainability. \nWhen the AIA launched the A&D Materials Pledge\, a common language was laid out with common goals regarding human health\, social health & equity\, ecosystem health\, climate health\, and circular economy. The Common Materials Framework\, further outlined by mindfulMaterials\, is the structure for this language\, helping to define the impact of materials. This common framework will help the industry to measure progress and accomplishments; consistency is key. \nLunch will be served to all pre-registered attendees. Republic Center Valet Parking will be validated for this event. Arrive early for parking and lunch so the program can begin right at noon.

SUMMARY:ESG & Architecture: Connecting Project Performance to Capital Markets
DESCRIPTION:1.0 HSW requested \nEnvironmental\, social\, and corporate governance (ESG) initiatives have grown to have a significant impact on the investment community that provides funding and insurance for both private and public development. However\, a clear strategy that links global corporate sustainability targets and the daily decision-making that shapes individual architectural projects remains opaque. What are the key drivers in ESG reports that currently are or will impact new developments and existing assets? This session will help practitioners unpack ESG and understand those connections and how they relate to progress in sustainability writ large. \nThe evening will begin with happy hour and networking. \nThis event is part of the AIA Dallas Professional Development Series\, presented by Existing Conditions.
