Throwback - How AI is Changing HVAC (and Your Job)

While our team is cooking up Season 5, we're throwing it back to one of our favorite episodes from past seasons. 

Is AI really the future of HVAC, or just industry hype?

In this episode of Cool Air, Hot Takes, hosts Charlie Jelen and Dan Gentry talk with Jean-Simon Venne, CTO and co-founder of BrainBox AI, about how artificial intelligence is reshaping HVAC systems. They explore real-world ways AI boosts energy efficiency, enhances preventative maintenance, improves indoor air quality, and helps buildings reduce their carbon footprint.

We also discuss:

• HVAC Headlines: Boston announces new net-zero emissions requirements, mandating that most large buildings achieve net-zero carbon from day one starting in 2025.
• AI & HVAC: What’s actually achievable when buildings embrace AI and the future of HVAC careers in an AI-driven world
• Stat of the Day: Dubai’s Business Bay District chilled water plant - how much cooling do you think it delivers?
