Architects, Meet Your New Muse: AI
If AI can’t design a structurally sound building, why are the world’s top architects letting it redesign their imagination?
We often assume architecture is where form follows function, but now it might follow a prompt. Thanks to GenAI, architects are using AI not to build, but to imagine. From Pratt’s Transductions exhibit to Stable Diffusion hallucinations, the field is bending. not breaking, under the weight of machine creativity.
AI doesn’t replace architects; it forces them to become sharper. Some see bugs (glitches, duplication), others see features. This is not the end of design, just a strange, compelling remix, where AI helps to redefine early-stage concept generation.
