Bronx C@L Meetup #01

Bronx C@L Meetup #01

Fri, Oct 9, 10:00 PM
From Bronx CRAFT@large Meetup Group

Tired of crossing two boroughs just to find a workshop, a class, or a community of people who like making things with their hands? So are we. BX Craft at Large — a Bronx-based extension of the Craft at Large network — is bringing that community home, so Bronx makers finally have a place of their own. Join us for the very first BX Craft at Large meetup — a chance to meet fellow Bronx-based makers, talk about what we want this community to become, and start building something together. No experience required, just curiosity and an interest in making things with your hands. For our first meeting we will introduce the co-organizers and hosts, get to know each other and our crafts, and then engage in a group activity.

Roundtable: The Only Constant is Change - Drive the Change You Want to See

Roundtable: The Only Constant is Change - Drive the Change You Want to See

Thu, Oct 1, 10:00 PM
From New York City BIM User Group
4.6

There are two elephants in the room … or rather several pairs of elephants: Autodesk monopoly vs AI enabling democratization of tool creation; standards vs openness; simplicity vs complexity; single source or truth vs data translation; trust vs check; drawings vs data deliverable; organic construction process vs datafied world; using AI right vs using AI well; applying standards vs building skills; individual expertise vs institutional knowledge; think it through vs get it done. In this open roundtable conversation, we’ll have plenty of questions to be explored: Are we building better judgment, or slowly outsourcing it? What is reliable? Who is liable? How do we query smarter? What does the law say … and your insurance? But most importantly: You bring your anxieties & questions; we bring the food & beer – and maybe together we can find an answer or two. Join us on Oct 1, 6:00pm. **Learning Objectives** 1. **Identify** the key tensions AI introduces into BIM workflows — including standardization vs. personalization, efficiency vs. foundational knowledge, and individual tool-building vs. collective consistency. 2. **Evaluate** the risks and liability implications of AI-assisted design decisions, including how QA/QC and review processes must adapt when data sources and workflows are no longer centralized. 3. **Assess** how AI is reshaping reliance on established platforms like Autodesk/Revit, and what this means for interoperability, data delivery, and long-term software strategy. 4. **Develop** practical strategies for building (or encoding) domain expertise — through skills, training, and mentorship — so teams can use AI effectively without losing critical judgment and fundamentals. **Microsoft Teams meeting** **Join:** [https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/23420331144527?p=5aSHRxmZK71KchtKI7](https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/23420331144527?p=5aSHRxmZK71KchtKI7 "Meeting join") Meeting ID: 234 203 311 445 27 Passcode: tT63zM3h *** [Need help?](https://aka.ms/JoinTeamsMeeting?omkt=en-US) \| [System reference](https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_ZGZhNmE4NDEtNTA5Zi00MzkxLTgyYTYtNDMwMDJhZjA1ZmQ4%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%220fc6889f-bf23-4c66-a071-f35150aabdfa%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%225f7aa5b0-d1e9-40e0-8c9d-74b0d20c89d6%22%7d) **Dial in by phone** [+1 531-205-2209,,14583825#](tel:+15312052209,,14583825) United States, Omaha [Find a local number](https://dialin.teams.cloud.microsoft/e1607c7c-f4af-4edc-9d47-10ce22c20bfb?id=14583825) Phone conference ID: 145 838 25# For organizers: [Meeting options](https://teams.microsoft.com/meetingOptions/?organizerId=5f7aa5b0-d1e9-40e0-8c9d-74b0d20c89d6&tenantId=0fc6889f-bf23-4c66-a071-f35150aabdfa&threadId=19_meeting_ZGZhNmE4NDEtNTA5Zi00MzkxLTgyYTYtNDMwMDJhZjA1ZmQ4@thread.v2&messageId=0&language=en-US) \| [Reset dial-in PIN](https://dialin.teams.cloud.microsoft/usp/pstnconferencing)
