Humans are not perfectly vigilant

I'm on tour with my new, nationally bestselling novel The Bezzle! Catch me in BOSTON with Randall "XKCD" Munroe (Apr 11), then PROVIDENCE (Apr 12), and beyond!

Here's a fun AI story: a security researcher noticed that large companies' AI-authored source-code repeatedly referenced a nonexistent library (an AI "hallucination"), so he created a (defanged) malicious library with that name and uploaded it, and thousands of developers automatically downloaded and incorporated it as they compiled the code:

https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/28/ai_bots_hallucinate_software_packages/

These "hallucinations" are a stubbornly persistent feature of large language models, because these models only give the illusion of understanding; in reality, they are just sophisticated forms of autocomplete, drawing on huge databases to make shrewd (but reliably fallible) guesses about which word comes next:

https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3442188.3445922

Guessing the next word without understanding the meaning of the resulting sentence makes unsupervised LLMs unsuitable for high-stakes tasks. The whole AI bubble is based on convincing investors that one or more of the following is true:

There are low-stakes, high-value tasks that will recoup the massive costs of AI training and operation;

There are high-stakes, high-value tasks that can be made cheaper by adding an AI to a human operator;

Adding more training data to an AI will make it stop hallucinating, so that it can take over high-stakes, high-value tasks without a "human in the loop."

These are dubious propositions. There's a universe of low-stakes, low-value tasks – political disinformation, spam, fraud, academic cheating, nonconsensual porn, dialog for video-game NPCs – but none of them seem likely to generate enough revenue for AI companies to justify the billions spent on models, nor the trillions in valuation attributed to AI companies:

https://locusmag.com/2023/12/commentary-cory-doctorow-what-kind-of-bubble-is-ai/

The proposition that increasing training data will decrease hallucinations is hotly contested among AI practitioners. I confess that I don't know enough about AI to evaluate opposing sides' claims, but even if you stipulate that adding lots of human-generated training data will make the software a better guesser, there's a serious problem. All those low-value, low-stakes applications are flooding the internet with botshit. After all, the one thing AI is unarguably very good at is producing bullshit at scale. As the web becomes an anaerobic lagoon for botshit, the quantum of human-generated "content" in any internet core sample is dwindling to homeopathic levels:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/03/14/inhuman-centipede/#enshittibottification

This means that adding another order of magnitude more training data to AI won't just add massive computational expense – the data will be many orders of magnitude more expensive to acquire, even without factoring in the additional liability arising from new legal theories about scraping:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/09/17/how-to-think-about-scraping/

That leaves us with "humans in the loop" – the idea that an AI's business model is selling software to businesses that will pair it with human operators who will closely scrutinize the code's guesses. There's a version of this that sounds plausible – the one in which the human operator is in charge, and the AI acts as an eternally vigilant "sanity check" on the human's activities.

For example, my car has a system that notices when I activate my blinker while there's another car in my blind-spot. I'm pretty consistent about checking my blind spot, but I'm also a fallible human and there've been a couple times where the alert saved me from making a potentially dangerous maneuver. As disciplined as I am, I'm also sometimes forgetful about turning off lights, or waking up in time for work, or remembering someone's phone number (or birthday). I like having an automated system that does the robotically perfect trick of never forgetting something important.

There's a name for this in automation circles: a "centaur." I'm the human head, and I've fused with a powerful robot body that supports me, doing things that humans are innately bad at.

That's the good kind of automation, and we all benefit from it. But it only takes a small twist to turn this good automation into a nightmare. I'm speaking here of the reverse-centaur: automation in which the computer is in charge, bossing a human around so it can get its job done. Think of Amazon warehouse workers, who wear haptic bracelets and are continuously observed by AI cameras as autonomous shelves shuttle in front of them and demand that they pick and pack items at a pace that destroys their bodies and drives them mad:

https://pluralistic.net/2022/04/17/revenge-of-the-chickenized-reverse-centaurs/

Automation centaurs are great: they relieve humans of drudgework and let them focus on the creative and satisfying parts of their jobs. That's how AI-assisted coding is pitched: rather than looking up tricky syntax and other tedious programming tasks, an AI "co-pilot" is billed as freeing up its human "pilot" to focus on the creative puzzle-solving that makes coding so satisfying.

But an hallucinating AI is a terrible co-pilot. It's just good enough to get the job done much of the time, but it also sneakily inserts booby-traps that are statistically guaranteed to look as plausible as the good code (that's what a next-word-guessing program does: guesses the statistically most likely word).

This turns AI-"assisted" coders into reverse centaurs. The AI can churn out code at superhuman speed, and you, the human in the loop, must maintain perfect vigilance and attention as you review that code, spotting the cleverly disguised hooks for malicious code that the AI can't be prevented from inserting into its code. As "Lena" writes, "code review [is] difficult relative to writing new code":

https://twitter.com/qntm/status/1773779967521780169

Why is that? "Passively reading someone else's code just doesn't engage my brain in the same way. It's harder to do properly":

https://twitter.com/qntm/status/1773780355708764665

There's a name for this phenomenon: "automation blindness." Humans are just not equipped for eternal vigilance. We get good at spotting patterns that occur frequently – so good that we miss the anomalies. That's why TSA agents are so good at spotting harmless shampoo bottles on X-rays, even as they miss nearly every gun and bomb that a red team smuggles through their checkpoints:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/08/23/automation-blindness/#humans-in-the-loop

"Lena"'s thread points out that this is as true for AI-assisted driving as it is for AI-assisted coding: "self-driving cars replace the experience of driving with the experience of being a driving instructor":

https://twitter.com/qntm/status/1773841546753831283

In other words, they turn you into a reverse-centaur. Whereas my blind-spot double-checking robot allows me to make maneuvers at human speed and points out the things I've missed, a "supervised" self-driving car makes maneuvers at a computer's frantic pace, and demands that its human supervisor tirelessly and perfectly assesses each of those maneuvers. No wonder Cruise's murderous "self-driving" taxis replaced each low-waged driver with 1.5 high-waged technical robot supervisors:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/01/11/robots-stole-my-jerb/#computer-says-no

AI radiology programs are said to be able to spot cancerous masses that human radiologists miss. A centaur-based AI-assisted radiology program would keep the same number of radiologists in the field, but they would get less done: every time they assessed an X-ray, the AI would give them a second opinion. If the human and the AI disagreed, the human would go back and re-assess the X-ray. We'd get better radiology, at a higher price (the price of the AI software, plus the additional hours the radiologist would work).

But back to making the AI bubble pay off: for AI to pay off, the human in the loop has to reduce the costs of the business buying an AI. No one who invests in an AI company believes that their returns will come from business customers to agree to increase their costs. The AI can't do your job, but the AI salesman can convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI anyway – that pitch is the most successful form of AI disinformation in the world.

An AI that "hallucinates" bad advice to fliers can't replace human customer service reps, but airlines are firing reps and replacing them with chatbots:

https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20240222-air-canada-chatbot-misinformation-what-travellers-should-know

An AI that "hallucinates" bad legal advice to New Yorkers can't replace city services, but Mayor Adams still tells New Yorkers to get their legal advice from his chatbots:

https://arstechnica.com/ai/2024/03/nycs-government-chatbot-is-lying-about-city-laws-and-regulations/

The only reason bosses want to buy robots is to fire humans and lower their costs. That's why "AI art" is such a pisser. There are plenty of harmless ways to automate art production with software – everything from a "healing brush" in Photoshop to deepfake tools that let a video-editor alter the eye-lines of all the extras in a scene to shift the focus. A graphic novelist who models a room in The Sims and then moves the camera around to get traceable geometry for different angles is a centaur – they are genuinely offloading some finicky drudgework onto a robot that is perfectly attentive and vigilant.

But the pitch from "AI art" companies is "fire your graphic artists and replace them with botshit." They're pitching a world where the robots get to do all the creative stuff (badly) and humans have to work at robotic pace, with robotic vigilance, in order to catch the mistakes that the robots make at superhuman speed.

Reverse centaurism is brutal. That's not news: Charlie Chaplin documented the problems of reverse centaurs nearly 100 years ago:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Times_(film)

As ever, the problem with a gadget isn't what it does: it's who it does it for and who it does it to. There are plenty of benefits from being a centaur – lots of ways that automation can help workers. But the only path to AI profitability lies in reverse centaurs, automation that turns the human in the loop into the crumple-zone for a robot:

[mr-entj]

Hello Mr. ENTJ. I'm an ENTJ sp/so 3 woman in her early twenties with a similar story to yours (Asian immigrant with a chip on her shoulder, used going to university as a way to break generational cycles). I graduated last month and have managed to break into strategy consulting with a firm that specialises in AI. Given your insider view into AI and your experience also starting out as a consultant, I would love to hear about any insights you might have or advice you may have for someone in my position. I would also be happy to take this discussion to somewhere like Discord if you'd prefer not to share in public/would like more context on my situation. Thank you!

Insights for your career or insights on AI in general?

On management consulting as a career, check the #management consulting tag.

On being a consultant working in AI:

Develop a solid understanding of the technical foundation behind LLMs. You don’t need a computer science degree, but you should know how they’re built and what they can do. Without this knowledge, you won’t be able to apply them effectively to solve any real-world problems. A great starting point is deeplearning.ai by Andrew Ng: Fundamentals, Prompt Engineering, Fine Tuning

Know all the terminology and definitions. What's fine tuning? What's prompt engineering? What's a hallucination? Why do they happen? Here's a good starter guide.

Understand the difference between various models, not just in capabilities but also training, pricing, and usage trends. Great sources include Artificial Analysis and Hugging Face.

Keep up to date on the newest and hottest AI startups. Some are hype trash milking the AI gravy train but others have actual use cases. This will reveal unique and interesting use cases in addition to emerging capabilities. Example: Forbes List.

On the industry of AI:

It's here to stay. You can't put the genie back in the bottle (for anyone reading this who's still a skeptic).

AI will eliminate certain jobs that are easily automated (ex: quality assurance engineers) but also create new ones or make existing ones more important and in-demand (ex: prompt engineers, machine learning engineers, etc.)

The most valuable career paths will be the ones that deal with human interaction, connection, and communication. Soft skills are more important than ever because technical tasks can be offloaded to AI. As Sam Altman once told me in a meeting: "English is the new coding language."

Open source models will win (Llama, Mistral, Deep Seek) because closed source models don't have a moat. Pick the cheapest model because they're all similarly capable.

The money is in the compute, not the models -- AI chips, AI infrastructure, etc. are a scarce resource and the new oil. This is why OpenAI ($150 billion valuation) is only 5% the value of NVIDIA (a $3 trillion dollar behemoth). Follow the compute because this is where the growth will happen.

America and China will lead in the rapid development and deployment of AI technology; the EU will lead in regulation. Keep your eye on these 3 regions depending on what you're looking to better understand.

The EUR/GBP Conundrum: How the Business Confidence Index Shapes Your Next Big Trade The Silent Market Mover You’re Ignoring In the chaotic world of Forex trading, most traders obsess over GDP reports, interest rate decisions, and employment figures. But here’s the dirty little secret: the Business Confidence Index (BCI) often reveals market moves before they happen—especially when trading the EUR/GBP pair. Why? Because sentiment is a leading indicator. While economic data tells you what happened, confidence levels tell you what’s coming next. If you’re still ignoring the BCI when trading EUR/GBP, you’re basically trying to drive while only looking in the rearview mirror. Let’s change that. Why the Business Confidence Index is the EUR/GBP Cheat Code Imagine you’re at a poker table. Your opponent keeps bluffing, but their hand is slightly revealed—just enough for a skilled player to read their move. That’s what the Business Confidence Index (BCI) does for Forex traders. Here’s why: - Confidence Drives Investment – Businesses expand, hire, and invest when confidence is high. When it drops, they tighten budgets. This shift directly impacts EUR and GBP valuations. - Leading Indicator – Unlike employment or GDP, which are lagging indicators, the BCI predicts future economic strength. - ECB vs. BoE Policy Implications – If Eurozone businesses are thriving while UK firms are struggling (or vice versa), central banks react accordingly, influencing interest rates and currency movements. The Hidden Patterns: How to Read BCI for EUR/GBP Trading 1. BCI Divergence is a Warning Sign - If Eurozone confidence surges while the UK struggles, expect EUR/GBP to climb. - If UK business sentiment outperforms, it’s a sign the pound could gain strength. 2. Threshold Levels Matter - A BCI above 100 signals optimism; below 100 means pessimism. - Sharp drops below 95 or surges above 105 often trigger large currency moves. 3. Historical Case Study: March 2023 In early 2023, Eurozone business confidence soared while the UK’s remained flat. Traders who spotted this divergence caught a 2% move on EUR/GBP—simply by front-running sentiment before it reflected in economic data. Advanced EUR/GBP Trading Strategies Using BCI 1. The Sentiment Reversal Play - If BCI plummets despite strong economic data, the currency may be overvalued. Look for a potential correction. - If BCI spikes before data confirms growth, expect momentum to build. 2. The Central Bank Anticipation Trade - When confidence is high, central banks lean hawkish (rate hikes = stronger currency). - When confidence crumbles, rate cuts become likely (weaker currency). Example: If UK business confidence drops sharply while the Eurozone remains stable, the BoE may turn dovish, weakening GBP against EUR. 3. The Cross-Market Confirmation - Combine BCI with PMI (Purchasing Managers' Index) and consumer sentiment reports for a full macro view. - Look at bond yields—if yields fall despite strong confidence, traders might be fading optimism (potential reversal signal). Insider Tip: The Unseen Relationship Between BCI and EUR/GBP Volatility Most traders react to news after it hits the headlines. The real pros spot the shifts before they happen. - BCI surprises of ±5 points often lead to spikes in EUR/GBP volatility. - When BCI deviates by more than 7 points from expectations, expect a 40-70 pip move within 48 hours. Translation? If you trade EUR/GBP and you’re not tracking business sentiment, you’re flying blind.

Integrating AI and Automation into Financial Modeling Training

The financial sector is changing quickly, and the way financial professionals approach their work is changing as a result of automation and artificial intelligence (AI) being incorporated into many operations. Financial modeling is one field where these developments are having a significant effect. Automation and artificial intelligence (AI) are proving to be effective tools in simplifying financial analysis and forecasting as businesses deal with the mounting need to make data-driven choices fast and precisely.

This blog will discuss the benefits of incorporating automation and artificial intelligence (AI) into financial modeling education, how professionals may stay ahead of the curve in the rapidly evolving finance industry, and why earning a financial modeling certification (FM certification) is essential for advancing one's career in this field.

The Role of Financial Modeling in Modern Finance

How to Determine How Much You’re House Is Worth in New Zealand: A Comprehensive Guide

When it comes to selling or buying property, understanding the value of a house is crucial. For homeowners in New Zealand, knowing how much their property is worth can help them make informed decisions whether they are looking to sell, refinance, or simply want to track their investment’s growth. One of the most reliable ways to determine property value is through professional Auckland property valuations, but there are also several tools and methods available for those who are curious about the value of their home. This article will explore how to find out "how much is my house worth NZ" and why Auckland property valuations are essential.

Understanding the Basics of Property Valuations

A property valuation is the process of determining the market value of a property at a given point in time. Several factors influence property valuations, including the size of the home, the location, the condition of the property, and recent sales of similar homes in the area. For homeowners in New Zealand, property valuations are an essential part of the real estate market. Whether you’re a buyer, seller, or investor, having an accurate estimate of your property’s value is key.

Valuations are often used in various real estate activities such as:

Buying or selling a property

Refinance or mortgage purposes

Insuring the property

Investment analysis

Taxation purposes

How to Find Out "How Much Is My House Worth NZ?"

In New Zealand, there are several ways to assess how much your house is worth. The following methods are commonly used by homeowners, buyers, and sellers alike.

1. Online Property Valuation Tools

One of the easiest ways to get an estimate of your home's value is by using online property valuation tools. Websites like "Whatsmy Housevalue" offer free or low-cost valuations based on recent sales data and other relevant property details. These tools provide an instant estimate, giving you a rough idea of your home’s market worth. However, these estimates are not always 100% accurate since they rely on available data, and they do not take into account the unique characteristics of your property.

2. Real Estate Agent Appraisal

Another method for determining how much your house is worth in NZ is through a real estate agent’s appraisal. An agent can visit your property, take into account its condition, features, and other important factors, and compare it with similar properties in the area that have recently sold. This approach often provides a more accurate estimate than online tools since real estate agents have an in-depth understanding of the local market. Many agents offer free property appraisals, making it a valuable option for homeowners looking to sell their properties.

3. Hire a Professional Valuer

For a more formal and comprehensive valuation, homeowners can hire a professional valuer. A registered property valuer will assess the property in person, consider all relevant factors, and provide a written report detailing their findings. These valuations are more accurate and reliable for those needing precise figures for legal, financial, or investment purposes. A professional valuer will consider factors such as the property’s size, condition, location, and any recent renovations or changes to the property.

4. Check Recent Sales in Your Area

Another way to gauge the value of your home is by reviewing recent sales of similar properties in your area. This is particularly useful in determining the current market trends. You can access this information through real estate websites or through the New Zealand Property Report. Understanding the prices of homes that are similar to yours, in terms of size, features, and location, will help you estimate how much your property is worth.

5. Use Automated Valuation Models (AVMs)

Automated Valuation Models (AVMs) are computer-generated property valuation tools that analyze massive amounts of data to estimate property values. These models typically use publicly available data, including recent sales, property tax assessments, and other market conditions. While AVMs can be convenient, it is important to note that they may not always take into account specific conditions of your home, such as recent renovations or unique features.

Auckland Property Valuations: Why They Matter

Auckland, being the largest city in New Zealand, has a highly dynamic property market. If you live in Auckland, understanding the importance of property valuations in this area is essential. The Auckland property market is influenced by factors such as:

High demand for housing due to population growth

The availability of land for new developments

Economic factors such as interest rates and employment

Local government policies and infrastructure investments

Due to the unique nature of the Auckland property market, obtaining a professional Auckland property valuation is often recommended. A registered valuer with local expertise can assess the property’s value in the context of these market dynamics.

How Auckland Property Valuations Are Conducted

An Auckland property valuation typically involves a detailed inspection of your home and an analysis of factors such as:

Location: Auckland’s property market is divided into various suburbs, each with its own unique characteristics and price trends. A property in the central business district (CBD) will generally have a higher value than one in more suburban or rural areas.

Size and Layout: The size of the land and the house itself, as well as the layout, play an important role in determining the value. Larger homes with more bedrooms and bathrooms often fetch higher prices.

Condition: The overall condition of the property, including the age of the building, the state of repairs, and any recent renovations, can significantly influence the valuation.

Market Trends: Valuers will also take into account current market trends in Auckland. This includes looking at recent sales in the area and understanding if the market is trending upward or downward.

Benefits of Accurate Property Valuations

Knowing the precise value of your property can help you make informed decisions about selling, buying, or investing in property. Here are some of the key benefits of accurate property valuations:

1. Informed Decision Making

An accurate property valuation helps you make decisions based on the current market value rather than assumptions or guesswork. Whether you're considering selling your property, refinancing, or making improvements, a valuation can give you the confidence to take the next step.

2. Price Expectations for Selling

If you’re looking to sell your property, an accurate valuation will help you set a realistic asking price. Overpricing a property can result in it sitting on the market for too long, while underpricing can mean leaving money on the table. A valuation helps you strike the right balance.

3. Negotiation Leverage

Having a clear understanding of your property's value gives you an edge in negotiations. Whether you're negotiating a sale or refinancing with a bank, being armed with a professional valuation will ensure you’re not taken advantage of.

4. Financial Planning

For property investors, a proper valuation provides insights into whether a property is a good investment. It allows investors to assess capital growth potential, rental yield, and the overall return on investment.

Conclusion

In New Zealand, knowing how much your house is worth is an essential aspect of property ownership. Whether you're looking to sell, buy, or simply get a better understanding of your investment, the methods outlined in this article offer valuable insights. From using online tools like "Whatsmy Housevalue" to obtaining professional Auckland property valuations, there are several options to explore. Remember that while online tools provide a quick estimate, hiring a professional valuer or working with a real estate agent will give you a more accurate and reliable assessment.

No matter which approach you choose, understanding the value of your property is crucial for making sound decisions in the ever-changing New Zealand real estate market.

Their technology not only saves time and reduces errors, but it also delivers high-quality data that can be directly used for analysis, planning, and decision-making.

By utilizing the latest drone technology and innovative surveying methods, Atom Aviation has earned a reputation as one of the best drone land surveying companies in Delhi, offering solutions that are both reliable and efficient.

Overview of Atom Aviation's Technology

At the core of Atom Aviation’s success in drone land surveying is its advanced technology. The company uses a fleet of high-performance drones equipped with the latest GPS systems, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors, and high-resolution cameras, ensuring precise data collection from any terrain.

Atom Aviation’s drones are capable of capturing accurate measurements of land features, including elevation, slope, and contours. These drones can also produce orthophotos, which are aerial images corrected for distortion, offering detailed visual representations of the surveyed land.

The integration of LiDAR technology with drone land surveying further enhances the quality of the collected data. LiDAR enables drones to scan the ground beneath trees or other obstructions, which is especially valuable in forested areas or agricultural landscapes where traditional surveys might fall short.

Additionally, Atom Aviation utilizes cutting-edge software to process the collected data into actionable insights. This technology allows for the generation of 3D models, contour maps, and volumetric calculations—tools that are essential for construction projects, land management, and environmental assessments.

Case Studies Demonstrating Success

1. Residential Development Project in Delhi

In one of Atom Aviation’s most successful projects, the company was hired by a real estate developer in Delhi to conduct a drone land survey for a large residential development. The project required accurate land measurements and mapping of the site’s topography to ensure proper planning and foundation work.

Using drones, Atom Aviation completed the survey in just a few days, delivering highly detailed 3D models and topographic maps that the developer used to finalize the design and plan construction phases. The speed and accuracy of the survey significantly reduced planning time and helped the developer avoid costly delays.

2. Drone Land Survey for Irrigation Planning

Another notable case study involved Atom Aviation conducting a drone land survey for an agricultural company looking to optimize its irrigation system. By using drones equipped with multispectral cameras, Atom Aviation was able to capture data on crop health and soil moisture levels across a large area. The aerial survey provided valuable insights that helped the company improve irrigation management, reduce water wastage, and increase crop yield.

3. Infrastructure Monitoring for a Highway Construction

For a major highway construction project, Atom Aviation used drones to perform ongoing drone land surveying to monitor the progress of construction and ensure that the project adhered to the specified design. The company provided weekly aerial updates and high-resolution imagery to the project managers, allowing them to assess the site’s condition and make real-time adjustments. This enabled the project to stay on schedule and within budget, reducing the risk of delays and errors.

Increased Efficiency and Accuracy

One of the most significant benefits of using drones for land surveying is the remarkable increase in both efficiency and accuracy. Traditional land surveying methods often require surveyors to traverse large areas on foot, manually taking measurements with ground-based equipment. This process is not only time-consuming but can also be prone to human error.

Drones, on the other hand, are equipped with high-precision GPS systems, LiDAR sensors, and high-resolution cameras, which allow them to capture vast amounts of data from the air in a much shorter time. The data gathered is highly accurate, including topographic maps, 3D models, and detailed elevation profiles. This precision is essential for industries such as construction and urban planning, where even slight errors in measurements can lead to costly delays or structural problems.

With drones, surveyors can complete a job that would typically take days or even weeks in just a few hours. The ability to quickly capture data from inaccessible or hazardous locations further enhances operational efficiency. Drones also provide real-time data transmission, allowing project managers and clients to assess progress and make decisions immediately, leading to better project management and faster turnaround times.

The combination of speed and accuracy makes drone land surveying an invaluable tool for a variety of industries, providing businesses with a competitive edge and ensuring that every survey is executed with the highest level of precision.

According to recent reports, Malaysia’s e-commerce market is expected to reach a valuation of over USD 4 billion by 2025. This growth is driven by increasing internet penetration, the convenience of online shopping, and the expanding middle class in Malaysia. What to Expect: As online shopping continues to grow, so does the demand for the infrastructure that supports it—warehouses, fulfillment centers, last-mile delivery hubs, and distribution networks. This shift is prompting a wave of investment in industrial properties in Malaysia, particularly in key logistics hubs like the Klang Valley, Johor, and Penang. 2. Demand for Warehousing and Distribution Centers As businesses move more products online, the need for large-scale warehouses and distribution centers is growing exponentially. E-commerce retailers need these properties to store inventory, manage stock, and prepare orders for shipment. Malaysia’s strategic location in Southeast Asia and its well-developed infrastructure make it an ideal location for such logistics operations. What to Expect: Malaysia is witnessing a surge in demand for warehouses, especially those that are strategically located near major transport hubs, ports, and highways. Ports like Port Klang and Penang Port, and proximity to the North-South Expressway, are highly sought after by logistics companies. This trend will continue in 2025, with even greater demand for properties close to major delivery routes. Browse more industrial property for rent 3. Last-Mile Delivery Hubs and Fulfillment Centers Last-mile delivery refers to the final step in the shipping process, where goods are delivered directly to the customer’s doorstep. As e-commerce giants like Lazada, Shopee, and Zalora scale up their operations, there is increasing demand for last-mile delivery hubs and fulfillment centers across Malaysia. What to Expect: These hubs are typically smaller-scale industrial properties located closer to urban areas and residential zones to expedite the delivery process. The growth of online shopping is pushing companies to invest in fulfillment centers that can handle large volumes of orders, track inventory in real time, and ensure timely deliveries. As a result, demand for urban warehouses and distribution centers will continue to rise in Malaysia’s most populous regions. 4. The Shift Toward Automation and Tech-Driven Warehouses With the growing complexity of supply chains and rising customer expectations for faster deliveries, e-commerce businesses in Malaysia are increasingly turning to automation and technology to streamline their operations. From robotics and AI to automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS), these innovations are revolutionizing the warehouse and logistics industry. What to Expect: Industrial properties designed for e-commerce businesses are evolving to meet these new demands. Future warehouses in Malaysia will likely feature cutting-edge technologies to improve efficiency and reduce labor costs. The rise of automated warehouses

will increase the demand for modern industrial properties that can support tech-driven operations, such as facilities with high ceilings, efficient layouts, and advanced power and data capabilities. 5. The Impact on Rental Rates and Property Values As e-commerce continues to fuel the demand for logistics spaces, industrial property rental rates and values are expected to rise in key areas. The competition for well-located industrial properties—particularly those near transport hubs or urban centers—is driving up prices. What to Expect: Investors in Malaysia’s industrial property market can expect increased demand for properties located near major highways, airports, and ports, particularly those offering large floor plans and modern amenities. The increasing demand for logistics spaces is also leading to higher rents, making industrial properties a lucrative investment opportunity for developers and landlords. 6. Opportunities for Developers and Investors The rapid growth of e-commerce presents huge opportunities for both developers and investors in the Malaysian industrial property market. The rising demand for warehousing and fulfillment centers, coupled with the need for modern, automated spaces, is driving investment in new developments and upgrades to existing industrial properties. What to Expect: Developers are focusing on building high-quality, flexible industrial spaces that cater to e-commerce businesses’ needs. These properties are often designed with advanced technology, sustainable features, and easy access to key logistics routes. For investors, this creates the opportunity to capitalize on a growing sector by investing in industrial properties that meet the needs of e-commerce companies.

E-commerce businesses are increasingly looking for industrial properties that feature energy-efficient designs, sustainable building materials, and renewable energy solutions. What to Expect: Malaysia is seeing a rise in green and sustainable warehouses, where developers incorporate eco-friendly practices such as solar panels, energy-efficient HVAC systems, and water-saving technologies. The focus on sustainability will be an important factor in future industrial property developments as e-commerce companies strive to meet their environmental goals and reduce operational costs. Conclusion: The growth of e-commerce is one of the key drivers shaping the demand for industrial properties in Malaysia. From the need for modern, tech-driven warehouses and fulfillment centers to the rise of last-mile delivery hubs, the industrial real estate market in Malaysia is rapidly evolving to meet the needs of the e-commerce sector. For businesses, developers, and investors, this growth presents significant opportunities to capitalize on the booming logistics and warehousing market. As the demand for industrial properties continues to rise, those who invest in well-located, modern, and sustainable industrial spaces will be well-positioned for success in 2025 and beyond.
