Both the type of activities and the skills of a civil engineer involve complex automation. When referring to activities, I mean that the engineer must determine the necessary engineering actions and works to address specific needs. This requires analysis work (diagnosing the context, theoretical framework, and feasibility of possible solutions) and the final selection, which additionally requires increased interdisciplinary collaboration as the projects increase in magnitude. As for skills, I agree with those who believe that automation and artificial intelligence have not made significant advancements in the fields related to critical thinking, decision-making, and human creativity, which are essential parts of the civil engineering profession.
