The Architecture of Artificial Intelligence is a 5-part video series, produced for Archinect by Otis Harley, exploring how artificial intelligence (AI) is changing architecture, design and the construction industry. The videos are based on ‘The Architecture of Artificial Intelligence' by Hannah Wood, published on Archinect last year.
Part 1 explores how AI is helping architects during what is often the first stage of a design process - collecting site information.
Part 2 explores how AI is helping architects and designers make decisions and even generate entire design proposals.
Part 3 explores how AI combined with Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality is being used to change how architect, client and users can engage with a design.
Part 4 explores how AI is helping develop a new breed to builders, the robot craftsmen.
In Part 5 we conclude by exploring how AI systems are being integrated into our buildings and speculate on how computer scientists and programmers with influence the built environment in the future.
The videos in this series were produced for Archinect by Otis Harley, founder of ArchiShorts, based on the Archinect article, ‘The Architecture of Artificial Intelligence,' by Hannah Wood.

Awesome and exciting, but the problems are in the politics of an increasingly automated world. What happens when 80-90% of worker are no longer employable? I think its irresponsible to develop a technology without any conversation and idea of how such a disruption will manifest itself politically. Nuclear energy for instance changed that geopolitics of the planet... In this case, work is intrinsically tied to rights, liberties, and social structures. I see two ways this can go. One is maybe optimistic, the other is quite dystopian...Its naïve to think that the powers that be are not anticipating this and putting their deck in order to maintain power as automation inevitably takes over more and more of the economy.
