while identifying areas of delays (e.g.
badly placed material slowing down
the passage of equipment). According
to co-founder and CEO of indus.ai,
Mathew Man, "the true power of AI in
these scenarios is its ability to automate
data gathering in real time". This is
providing engineers live data to make
better decisions.
Artificial Intelligence has tremendous
application in all areas of engineering
and beyond. We are only starting to
explore the applications of AI as a tool
to empower humankind to solve many
problems efficiently, safely and in ways
that were simply not possible before.
This does indeed present all the premise
of a key element of the new wave of
innovation for Ontario, Canada and the
rest of the world. Engineers will play a

key role in developing this technology. They are at the heart of creating practical
solutions powered by technology and have the expertise required to do so in a safe,
ethical and responsible way.
What are your thoughts on the potential and risk of Artificial Intelligence for
engineers but also society in general? What can or should our institutions do to
foster positive AI innovation while safeguarding the public? Let OSPE's Research and
Innovation Task Force know by emailing advocacy@ospe.on.ca.

holder can potentially save up to $1,911 per year. This ﬁgure is based on the typical proﬁle of an offer holder who has the following: a banking package equivalent to The TotalTM package, a World Elite Mastercard
credit card, a National Bank All-In-One BankingTM mortgage line of credit with a current annual balance of $150,000 and a personal line of credit with a current annual balance of $25,000, all with a good credit

line of credit rate (annual savings of $1,125), plus an annual 2.50% discount on the personal line of credit rate (annual savings of $625), minus the annual fee for the World Elite Mastercard credit card for one
