White-collar jobs in construction face more automation risk than blue-collar work, despite earlier predictions. AI is cheap and fast to deploy, while replacing physical labor requires expensive specialized machinery.

I think all white-collar jobs are at risk, to be frank. We all thought that the jobs that were going to be replaced first were blue-collar jobs, and that has happened to a point, but it has been very, very slow because to replace a blue-collar job, it is essentially you've got to create machinery, which is very, very expensive, where AI now has been created and it's very cheap and it's very quick and it's very powerful.
