AI Was Asked To Design Skyscrapers by An Architect. This Is What It Suggested

He claims it was inspired in part by Hyperion, the 380-foot-tall redwood from California that is considered to be the tallest living tree in the world. He also used his day-to-day work as an architect at Ant Studio in India, which includes retrofitting buildings to increase natural ventilation and lower energy consumption.

“The inspiration was the idea of a building’s skin is organic and inspired by nature. And how evaporative cool and transpiration occurs so that towers can regulate their temperature throughout the day,” Bhatia stated, adding: “If building materials could be made organic, and live and grow, then the building could ventilate its own air through these natural processes.”

Jason M. Allen, a Colorado game designer, won $300 in an art contest.

The recent popularity of AI imaging tools such as OpenAI’s HTML-E 2 or Google Research’s image has raised questions about creativity and artistic integrity.

Jason M. Allen’s image, which was futuristic and Renaissance-inspired, was created using Midjourney. Although some artists and social media users expressed disapproval of Allen’s methods for creating his submission, the designer claimed it was a work of digital art.
AI is just another tool for Bhatia. He said that art is open to interpretation. An artist can use any tool to create art. While anyone can use AI, they won’t achieve the same level of creativity as an artist.

The architect said that AI can produce something more than users imagine and it can inspire new ideas and enrich design processes. He envisions a future in which AI could generate 3D designs, and integrate them into the software used by architects to model their creations.

He said that AI has great potential. “At our studio, we tried AI to generate mood board images for a client presentation. That went very well. It would be a great idea to combine AI and architects in the near future.
