In this article published in Installatiejournaal, Rewire&#8217;s Simon Koolstra warns that AI systems in building and installation management are rapidly shifting from advisory tools to autonomous decision-makers \u2014 controlling energy use, climate settings, maintenance planning, and more. The core risk is scale: where a human error affects one situation, a flawed AI agent propagates that error instantly across every system it touches. Koolstra notes that problems rarely stem from the technology itself, but from poor implementation \u2014 unclear boundaries, overly broad system access, and inadequate monitoring. With the EU AI Act&#8217;s high-risk provisions taking effect in August 2026, he urges installers and building managers to act now rather than wait for regulation to force their hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.installatiejournaal.nl\/23855\/slimme-installaties-nemen-vaker-zelf-beslissingen-maar-wie-grijpt-er-in-als-het-misgaat\">Read the full article in <\/a><\/b><strong><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.installatiejournaal.nl\/23855\/slimme-installaties-nemen-vaker-zelf-beslissingen-maar-wie-grijpt-er-in-als-het-misgaat\">Installatiejournaal [in Dutch]<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12806,"template":"","class_list":["post-12739","press","type-press","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Smart building installations are increasingly making their own decisions.
