133: ‘The (Chaotic) State of the AEC Tech Industry, Part 1’, with Martyn Day

Martyn Day of X3DMedia joins the podcast to talk about the current state of AEC tech. In part 1 of the conversation we specifically focus on our challenges, potential avenues for growth that exist within the industry, and cover an amazing amount of valuable insight into the industry's dynamics, both seen and unseen.

For a bit more context, we discuss the lack of a standard workflow in AEC, the NXT BLD and NXT DEV conferences, similar challenges in the Mechanical CAD ecosystem, the future of Revit, problems with the shift to the cloud, the importance of IT and digital practice leadership roles, software business models, concerns about data security, BIM 2.0, and the dynamics of VC funding. We also touch on the impact of AI tools, the automation of 2D drawings, and the link between design and fabrication.
