Webinar Video] How ChatGPT works and how to use it appropriately for the construction and civil engineering fields.

I have been receiving inquiries from many companies in the real estate and construction field, and I have the impression that many of them have similar concerns, so I thought it would be good to have an opportunity to share some of the common questions and concerns in the industry and to ask questions to the experts.

We would like to hold a webinar to introduce the basic structure of ChatGPT and its applications in the architectural and civil engineering fields to those responsible for various departments in such companies.

The invited lecturer, Professor Kawahara, is an expert in natural language processing at Waseda University, where he is researching artificial intelligence systems that can understand language to the same degree as humans.

After that, we would like to answer questions from participants in the real estate and construction field about how to use ChatGPT in their work and what they need to know about ChatGPT.
