Both, the AI design is unusable because it's nonsensical in many ways, so you need to take the AI's strong points and "fix" it by making it make sense. So you need each other, the AI can't win when its design can't be built at all, but it does win otherwise, so it needs you to win and thus you both win. Or maybe it's disqualified for making a nonsense layout and you just win.

Robots will make it better, faster, cheaper, and more reliable/repeatable. No technology in the past was able to replace every job and skill in a such short time. Sure, it might be an enabler, but we are sitting on an express train that goes faster and faster, and capabilities vastly outperform alignment (control) research. Nobody knows exactly how it works and why it does what it does. We don't even have time to look at what is ahead, because it means falling behind the other companies and countries who are pushing forward. We have pretty much one shot at getting AI right, because it will outpace us. When was the last time you got something complex right the first time?

It takes in a bunch of human work and compresses it down to weighted matrices, the information is still there in a derivative intermingled form. The "AI" does not create completely new concepts, it only mixes up that existing data, and because there's enough layers of mixing, it's obfuscated enough to be convincing to people that it's "Creating", but it's not because it doesn't actually conceptualize or understand what it's making, it's just following paths of strongest association for different features of the image tied to keywords.

If we don’t bite it, first.

These AI generated homes are impressive, and the fact AI can gen an multitude floorplans and renderings quickly is powerful. I do believe these will become the base templates for Architects to choose, then alter and personalize.

This was truly interesting 🤔 Though, I have to say that I wasn't too enthused by the AI's plans/3D rendering. Everything basically looked the same compared to the regular architect's approach. All 3 options were so much more!! I can't wait so see more from you guys :)

You missed the point on this though. The AI was able to come up with those FINAL plans within hours (at most) whereas the team took 3 days to design their plans and still lost the competition. Architectural design projects take YEARS to complete. There are many phases of work. The part you missed is that the AI is able to blow through entire phases and complete the project is a significantly shorter time. If you and AI compete to complete drawings and the AI can do it 20x faster and produce the same result, the firm is hiring the AI and you are out of a job. Think..bigger

I did a book design recently, and I think the best use of AI is remixing an original design. I managed to save a ton of time and work by generating variations of my original cover art. With the extra time, I was able to focus on other stuff for my client and give her a warmer, more humane client experience. And from her feedback, this extra attention was fundamental in her choice to work with me again in the future. Having the AI do the hard work can work wonders, sometimes.

As a person that builded already two houses I would like to say that those designs made by architects are just bad - fancy, good looking on paper for other architects, or just complex without a reason. My second house is generally a cube and is hated by so many architects and I cannot wonder enough how better this house is than my first one. And I didn't even mention that more fancy and complex design not only costs more but is also error prone.

I personally think this challenge should have been designed on the EXACT SAME site location. Because when people ask an architect/s to design a house, they usually (dare I say always) have a site already picked out. Then, and ONLY then, would you be able to say you have a clear winner based on reality. As of now, you have two totally different ficticious sites that can trick the viewer into 'thinking' one is better than the other simply based on the final picture...which is what most people probably do. But with that said...I really did like the video.

Well done, very nice cover of what AI can do at this point. It's amazing how beautiful some of these images are, they feel like the final product. I loved a few of them, I definitely can see myself in a house like the one at 12:02 It is amazing

I use AI for iterative design process, also for post productions and writing

Very detailed and thorough content, the fun story made it even more enjoyable :) And that's something only humans can do :)

For now

I personally didn't know what you were having us vote on. Like "is she asking if we prefer drawn floor plans over renders?" or " these dialogues feel like they're describing the same thing; is she asking which writing style we prefer?" were big questions I had during voting. If I had known what was being tested, I would've given drastically different answers.

Super interesting video! Only one thing stood out to me as missing in the conclusion. The part 1 Floorplan was not used as a basis for the layout in part 2. It's easy to spot that the AI fails this part pretty bad. If I get a house made and the Floorplan is not the same as what is built then we have a problem. That is the main problem I found with Midjourney late last year, might be better in 2023, it's easy to make new looks but really hard to iterate on a current idea. Fx. try make an image of an arch viz, and then only change the time of day, or move some trees, without changing anything else. I had a fun/frustrating few day to try and get Midjourney make a picture of a sword hilt, without the blade part. I am sure it will get better with stuff like control net, but I think the way forward is to use AI for skipping the boring stuff and then let human pick the focal/context/finish.

In the floorplan case, the input should have been "from the floorplan, build a rendering etc etc". The greatest challenge with AI now is alignment, or "Which input does this damn thing need to give me what I want?" Training will get better with time, as will its understanding of basic parameters like "humans need doors to access places, windows for ventilation and view, light, insulation, water, electricity, gas, and so on and so forth. Specific architecture software will generate rough sketches that get less and less rough until they're "good enough" to be mass constructed. Within our lifetimes we'll have procedurally generated downloadable modular plans for entire neighbourhoods, and they'll get built. By the end of the century, human-made architecture will be a luxury or niche business, much like tailoring, painting, cabinetmaking...

I’m just mesmerized watching you explain everything 😊

Woww, thank you so much for making this video! You have such a light heated story telling and you really put me in high spirits with this video, it just made me think that my profession as a designer is very similar to yours as an architect! Yes, making things pretty is great but if form doesn't follow function then it's pointless! And yes, you don't just start at the pretty first, you start building it gradually with assumptions while respecting your constraints, that's what makes design great! It's challenging, creative, and you get to do pretty things at the end of the day, it's great, it's rewarding and I love it! I hope that one day I can be an architect as well, it just looks like loads of fun (but also very challenging!!!). Love your video from the bottom of my heart, keep the great content coming! ❤😘

I am curious to see what an audience of architects would rate this competition. I feel that there was more charm to the human team, whereas AI designs look a little more 'cut and paste'. Just my two cents worth as an architecture student.

WOW! This KZread video has great production value! So glad I found this channel!

Somewhere between 5 and 10 years from now, (I would say 8) there's going to be at least one fully working BIM AI software, that will do 100% of an architect's current job in just a few clicks. Everything from concept, variants, functionality, rendering, energy simulations and costs. Also all of the engineering work too, from structural to HVAC, electrical and plumbing. 15 years maximum. RevitAI Work that would take a team an entire year, will be done in 5 minutes. Tied into a city managing system and legislative system, it will also be capable of making the entire documentation by itself. That would take a bit more probably. Like ...20 years maybe. We're a dying breed. And possibly, in 60 years after a future WW, when everything is flattened by the war, humanity can finally return to its starting point. The cave. But I still love the future RevitAi software.

@@GeometricPidgeon this AI that is suddenly popular today was not only conceivable but also has been in use for more than a decade. The big difference that's happening now is that a lot of it has become open source and accessible resulting in all sorts of use cases such as image manipulation/generation and sound generation. Regardless, I do agree it's not possible to know where a technology might go. About what you said about prompt engineering, I think that will be gone far sooner than you think, it will only be used in ai models where a text based interface actually makes sense (such as a chat bot). Currently it's pretty funny how most interfaces are text based even if it's the worst possible interface, such as typing in a game engine or a 3d modelling tool to tell it what to do, rather than a sound based interface or some sort of automatic assister where it understands what you're trying to do and extrapolates interpolates your actions while also correcting any errors, I think we will see this soon (kind of like magic select in photoshop but far more advance and versatile)

just loving your channel. this video reminded me of a final project i had to design for a class. instructors loved it but thought it was kinda sci fi for the time. house built into a south facing slope (not near as steep) with solar panels connected to a geo thermal water system. had i known about led lighting i would have went with that as another energy saving feature. but this was in 1982 so most of these ideas weren't quite practical or obtainable at that time. there i go ramblin on like an old retired guy. thanks for a good memory from a great video. keep up the great work. oh yeah i fergot. ai did have a better looking presentation, but i noticed the oddness on the interior view.

SIMPLE amd striaght to the point, great video i have spotted a leaned on ai to do my renders in inital design phase of a project, but i cant wait for ai like UPcodes.. being able to check a whole building against building regulations and continue doing your job. I feel ai will leave more for creativity in projects especially the forgotten project like disaster relief architetcure, affordable housing. etc

Fascinating video, very well done! I think AI will continue the trend of architectural skills being most valuable at higher levels of decision making. Skills like great drafting or hand sketching were replaced by CAD 2D which was replaced by 3D database systems like Revit. Try to explore guided AI- chose a concept like your cantilever plan, ask AI as your assistant to develop many options, then edit and develop those to give the AI better functional rules about door swings etc. Train the AI like you would an intern: ‘ Every bedroom must have a closet, size ___, and an operable window size___, etc. The architect with the most thoroughly trained AI will have the best leverage value on their time. AI seems perfect for linking a library of construction details with design. For example if you design a balcony you will need a balcony rail detail, and if you choose a glass rail or a steel cable rail AI can do that from a library. The future of architects is in higher level thinking and idea generation and client interaction, if your current job skill is inputting Revit data you will be replaced. Every office used to have someone whose skill was manually drawing perspective renderings, now no one does.

I agree. To be honest, most AIs today are just "stealing" other ideas. Put the same prompts into Google images and you'll probably come up with a picture of a house that meets any brief. It's no different than people leveraging libraries of pre-designed house plans. But these pre-designed house plans don't account for things like how a client spends their day, what the demands are for seasonal events, the "special" moments that make a custom house unique. The specialized AI of the future will be able to be taught, like an architecture student, in learning what questions to ask the client and what questions to ask of the environment in which the house will be placed. But who will do the teaching? Who will help the AI learn to challenge boundaries and come up with new and innovative ideas? That will be the role of the architect.

I think that right now, AI can look at 1000 “kitchen” plans and produce a reasonable composite, but higher-level AI will need to learn ( and remember, not just reference) how humans use “kitchens” and how using that space to prepare coffee and toast, vs a microwave meal, vs a holiday dinner for 12 people, vs a place to do homework or just have a conversation. Each of these functions needs slightly different space, equipment, and attributes- for example good traffic flow or a quiet corner with a window for breakfast tea.

DamiLee AND Daniel Titchener - YES!! The collab I didn't think I needed

Awesome collab! Tbh there could've been more effort into the floor plans from the humans 🤣

Thanks @DamiLee ! Great video and content! I really loved the ending, where you broke down the ripple effects that become evident from the Conclusions of the video. I agree that AI will soon be replacing many jobs from a wide range of industries (creative, computer science, customer service, public transportation, etc, etc), but I'm still not sure if its a bad thing. It almost feels counterintuitive to consider, but how might a society flourish if all those jobs were replaced with AI? Would we stop partaking in those industries all together, or will they become more like personal hobbies that we work together with our personal "AI companion" to actualize? For instance, if I love architecture today, I may consider going to school to become an architect as a profession; but in 50-100 years, that same person may decide to learn how to create renders like this, and work with their AI to build their dream home. Then maybe they desire to learn how to code-- the AI can recommend resources and even conjure a virtual professor to teach them how to program their robotic pet dog. Months later after created their very own robotic canine companion, they may move on to the next desired task or project. In other words, humanity will continue to flourish in these categories like art, creative content, programming, etc, but they will do so on their own volition. The need for jobs will probably decline or disappear and, without the worry of making ends meet, humanity will have the ability to skip past the first 2 levels of Maslow's hierarchy and begin working on relationships, self-esteem and eventually self-actualize. The big question of AI taking over always surfaces, but what if we can make an accord with AI wherein it can run the world (regarding operating, maintaining, and expanding the infrastructure of AI/Human society) while we work together to create interstellar travel (this can only come from generations of harmonious relations with AI starting today). From there, we can leave Earth and leave AI to rule it, while humanity goes to the stars and civilizes multiple planets like Earth, hopefully treating any new life discovered with the same respect and grace as with a human. In a nutshell, this is my wish for the future of AI : an era where humanity is symbiotic with everything on Earth-- including the plants, animals, land, and AI. To make this a reality, maybe AI is the very savior our subconsciouses collectively sought throughout the generations of slowly destroying ourselves and our environments. I pray comments like this will positively aid in the creation of AI's foundation, giving it content of humanity wishing for harmony rather than friction. Thanks for reading, open to anyone's thoughts:)

@Big-Ass Red Bird"what about jobs that can't be done by AI!" If the general company or field can offload enough. You can bet your bottom dollar that the rest of it will also be offloaded to the cheapest possible option in a landscape where the field becomes narrowed. Re: offshore manufacturing.

The next generation of architects won't exist.

You have a very logical and systematical thinking, and that makes every video a delight for architectural, perspective, and artistic nerds. Also, you have a very charming personality!

As an electrician of 30 years all I can say to modern architects is this: You effing deserve it. Who has to go behind you when a customer realizes that a front entrance with a pool suspended over it is pitch black at night? Who has to go after the horror show of a stepped level 3 floor interior wall 5 years later when a customer needs a receptacle installed 6 feet over because they changed the furniture and don't want to run an extension cord? For every vaulted ceiling, exposed beam mounted, 200lb chandelier I've installed, I hope you realize that making a habit of sacrificing function for form has only dug your own graves when a program that could do it better came along. I kind of like the old 70's squatted 3 foot tall attics to the collection of risers and blocked crawl spaces that have come about in the last decade.

This was the best response to AI that I have seen, it's well thought out about the benefits and shortcomings and what future development might bring. Loved how you depicted gen-1 as a baby, speaking of which, gen-2 was basically just announced so it turned out pre-scient in a way.

For example... a group of maybe 5-10 architects in a small firm will be replaced by maybe 2 or 3 that will work with AI tools.

Architects don’t just design...that’s a relatively small part of what they do. AI cannot replace the interface with clients, administrative effort to manage a project from start to finish; coordination with consultants, contractors; ensure legal and statutory compliance; construction documentation...and the list goes on. A practice of 10 cannot be replaced by a practice of 3 unless all they do is design - and that’s called living in fairy land

Do the obvious thing and use AI during your brainstorming sessions, and maybe for render stylization. Best of both worlds. Awesome video, by the way.

When I first started my professional career, I was an AutoCAD drafter. Then in the 90's most engineers started learning and doing their own drawings (albeit not as well) and my job got squeezed out. So lately I have been trying to upgrade my graphic design skills and along comes Midjourney and other AI platforms. I have been enjoying playing with it but fear that it will push many people out of a chance at jobs in the design/art industries. Positions that are already few and far between...

I have used both midjourney and Dall-e and you would go through a bunch of options before getting anything like they show here :) also, the architects version is a 3D model and the AI version is just a 2d image. Last but not least, produce a set of construction documents MR AI :) And as a design-build contractor, I will gladly let AI deal with pesky clients while I build lol

AI no doubt will replace most of the jobs in the digital space. I'm currently making a game right now with the help of ChatGPT. And it really does well as a tool for programmers.
