BSJZ Law is excited to announce that attorney Marcus R. Sanborn  has been featured in the August 2024 issue of CAM Magazine for his insights on how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming legal standards in the construction industry.

In the article, “AI and Construction: Raising the Bar,” Marcus discusses how the widespread adoption of AI—from predictive analytics to robotic systems—is reshaping the standard of care in construction. He draws on his extensive experience in construction litigation and contract law to highlight emerging liability questions and the importance of updating contracts to reflect the realities of AI integration.

Marcus notes that as contractors and designers begin using AI for tasks like scheduling, documentation, and safety planning, they must proactively address these tools in their contracts to manage risk and clarify responsibilities. Drawing historical parallels to the early days of BIM technology, Marcus offers a practical legal perspective on how the industry can adapt to this technological shift without getting caught off guard.

Contractors and designers should implement internal guidelines for the use and monitoring of AI in their projects. As AI continues to redefine competence and diligence in the field, Marcus remains at the forefront of helping construction professionals navigate the changing legal landscape.
