ACEC Monthly Membership Meeting - February 2026

February 17, 2026 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM (MST)

Description



Title: Generative AI in Engineering: A Primer.

 

Description: This presentation will give you a summary of how tools like ChatGPT and Co-Pilot work under the hood. Once you understand how they tick, you should walk away with a better understanding of what prompts will make you more efficient and which pitfalls to avoid. After a broad summary of the tools, we will present a couple of “case studies” of how we have used GenAI in our own work, with their costs and benefits, as well as Artificial Intelligence's place in engineering 

 

Bio: 

Alex Nunez-Thompson has been a legal assistant and public educator before putting his civil engineering degree to work. He currently works at Daniel B Stephens & Associates, where he tackles problems in water, wastewater, solid waste, remediation, and mining across the three places he has called home: Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico. 

 

Adam Wilcox is a Civil EIT at Wilson & Company on the land development and site team. He has worked on developing AI computer vision systems that focus on object detection and image classification of culverts and culvert conditions for his master's degree at NMT. He has a passion for tech and believes everyone can benefit from learning more about how AI works.
