Mapping the AI & Architecture Landscape
In this web-essay I am trying to map out the different types of AI being used today in the Architecture industry. There are a wide variety of tools being developed and used by Architecture professionals. I hope to, in this web-essay to categorise them in a way that makes this landscape more understandable. (In the same way the early explorers in ‘The Age of Discovery’ helped make the world beyond these shores better understood.)
The reason for this web-essay is because of the excitement and trepidation some of these tools have generated in the industry. MidJourney in particular produces outputs that can be very intimidating for young and old professionals alike. But when you understand how these tools produce their output and what type of output they can generate, it helps put things in perspective.
They are definitely going to change how Architecture is designed and thus it is prudent to learn more about them. There is a definite trend in the increasing use of computation to assist the design, documentation and construction of Architecture. A.I. is just another step along the same path that started with CAD, then BIM and now A.I.. These tools are vital to learn about to be able to stay relevant in today’s market.
