December Chapter Meeting

Removing the Artificial from Artificial Intelligence: Examples of Realistic and Successful Applications of Al in Controls

Join us for lunch at Willow Oaks Country Club on Tuesday, December 3rd for our regular monthly chapter meeting.

Artificial intelligence (Al) is being used in many ways across industry. This seminar dives into real world applications of Al in Controls, including experiences, successes and lessons learned. Technologies discussed include data-driven applications of machine learning, optimizing economization for network shelters and Al algorithm application to develop machine learning of chillers.

This presentation will dive into different applications of Al with real-life examples, including sensor fusion, occupant estimation, alarm management, large language models with BAS, and predictive control. The goal is to simplify Al then show that it is already existent in several ways in and outside of the BAS industry.
