As with a lot of flashy “tech”, like “3D printing” un reinforced concrete shells, this isn’t addressing the difficult things. Most of us can whip up concepts of uninspired “modern villas by the beach” lacking any connection to the unique site or client, but the actual challenges come with limitations like working within zoning regulations and budgets. There’s potential to leverage machine learning/artificial neural networks to do more immediately useful things, but that takes a lot more work to develop than perhaps reskinning stable diffusion with a more narrow, “curated” training set. (And then there’s the issue of whose work these systems are being trained on… none of these are at all “intelligent”, they’re just regurgitating and recombining preexisting work.)
Bruh this just the beginning, if you can figure out all those limitations some diligent programer may already have and also trying to overcome such obstacles, just to be the latest and greatest. Man kind's intelligence is relentless for spite
For lot of people the hard part is the conceptual and the design phase not regulations. "they’re just regurgitating and recombining preexisting work" Isn't that how your brain work?
My humble input as a design person. The concepts which are truly set in time arise from emotions and high purpose which speak to other humans and create long lasting impression. AI (which is not even any sort of intelligence, but machine learning) only imitates what had been done by humans out of those higher purpose intentions, but obviously (and i would say luckily) can't replicate emotions, feelings and seeking for a higher purpose.
It will get more interesting when AI is trained not just with renders/photos but also the corresponding plans, and start to understand how the interior and exterior of buildings are related.
Unbelievable! 😱 Jonathan, your recommendation video for LookX AI has blown us away! We're overflowing with gratitude for your incredible support! 🙌🎉 Your influence and enthusiasm have made a profound impact on us! 😍🌟
Hi Jonathan, very good tutorial/explanation. I would imagine this technology will progress at an exponential rate. Although intrigued, very glad to be retired.
I think there are a few issues at the root of the "AIrchirecture" discussion. First of all, many people misunderstand the distinction between "The Professional" and "The Tool". AI is a great TOOL, but it can't (or at least won't for a long time) replace the depth of understanding, context, and adaptability of the human mind. Just like AutoCAD made it easier to make blueprints, just like Revit made it easier to calculate materials and check structural details, just like Sketchup makes it easier to design custom furniture - AI will make it easier to create general "look & feel" concepts. But you still need someone to run it. Second, AI can't understand the client's wishes, the cultural and geographical context, and building code requirements. A house in Norway is different from a house in Costa Rica. A high-rise condo in Tokyo has wildly different structural requirements than a high-rise condo in Miami. A home for a family with multiple kids calls for a different layout & room count than a home for a single millionaire, even if they're the same square footage. There are simply too many factors to consider, beyond the visuals. AI isn't going to "be the end" of architects. But it's going to give the better architects better tools, and shake out the terrible ones from the bottom of the barrel.
I'VE NEVER USED AI, BUT I'M WONDERING IF YOU HAVE TRIED TO ASK AI TO GIVE YOU A SET OF " WORKING DRAWINGS YET? OR IS EVERYONE ASSUMING THAT IT'S NOT POSSIBLE?
It's not possible since the way these models work is through training them on other images. This means that AI is just a sophisticated statistical prediction engine that tries to synthesize new output from previously trained image data and NLP (text input processing). In order to create working drawings you need a completely different method of generating images based on specific 3D information models.

Thanks for your thoughts which are interesting.

Yes I agree, although I think we are all wondering where AI will go with creative design??

Awesome! Thank you!
Que buena idea, saludos desde Perú!!!

Good point!
What do you think about AI in architecture and have you tried to use it within your design workflow yet?

Not really!

Hace you se en D5 Hi?
Yep watch please my videos on that!
