Just a bit of information. Think about how AI generated architecture ends up. There is an ai generator for music. I wrote an album off it long ago. What it does its it inputs your stuff into the computer (it was a board, not on the computer) and it uses a database of music knowledge to play along with you. Eventually, though, you can beat the computer & it will spit something of your own back out at you
I'd expect a lot of clients tinkering with image-generating blackboxes to then hand the images to architects with instructions to "build it". You already have that kind of project delivery today, dividing responsibilities for styling and construction.

BB, i was actually thinking this could be a great opportunity to make some funky shit with a really great contract haha.
have y’all not seen Test Fit? It’s probably the most frightening thing I’ve seen for the profession. Or text prompt to 3d model? None of this affects billable hours though I guess lol. Maybe get less feasibility study jobs.

I've seen test fit. I think it's a good tool for the intended typology.
ok, here's my plan. when AI gets better at architecture than me, and the cylons come, i will stop doing architecture and join a think tank to figure out how to address the ethics of AI.
Ladies and gentlemen, tonight I want to talk about architecture, socialism, injuries, and white men. Yeah, I know, it's an unusual combination, but let's see where this goes.
First up, architecture. You know what I find funny about architects? They spend years designing these elaborate buildings with sleek, futuristic designs, and yet, they always forget one crucial thing: doors that actually work! How many times have you been to a fancy office building or hotel and struggled to open the damn door? And don't even get me started on those automatic doors that never seem to sense your presence.
Now, let's talk about socialism. I know, I know, this is a sensitive topic, but hear me out. I'm not here to discuss politics or economics. I'm here to talk about the aesthetics of socialism. You see, whenever you hear someone talk about socialism, they always talk about how it's this utopian society where everyone shares everything equally. But have you ever seen what socialist architecture looks like? It's all bland, gray buildings with no character or charm whatsoever. If that's what socialism looks like, count me out!
Moving on to injuries. You know what's funny about injuries? They always seem to happen at the worst possible moment. Like, have you ever tried to impress someone by doing a backflip or a cartwheel, only to end up in the emergency room with a broken ankle? Or how about when you're running late for a meeting and you stub your toe on the coffee table? Injuries are like the universe's way of reminding us that we're not as cool or coordinated as we think we are.
And finally, white men. Ah, the demographic that has been the butt of jokes for as long as I can remember. I mean, let's face it, white men are not exactly known for their rhythm or their dance moves. But you know what they are good at? Creating their own injuries! White men are the kings of injuring themselves while doing the most mundane things. Like, have you ever seen a white man try to open a jar of pickles? It's like they're trying to lift a car or something.
In conclusion, folks, we've learned that architects need to focus on designing doors that actually work, socialism needs to up its game in the aesthetics department, injuries are the universe's way of reminding us that we're not as cool as we think we are, and white men...well, let's just say they're a special breed. Thank you and goodnight!
this is what google's bard says: Architecture, socialism, injuries, and white men are all complex topics with a long and intertwined history.
Architecture is the art and science of designing and constructing buildings and other structures. Socialism is a political and economic system where the means of production are owned and controlled by the people, either directly or through the state. Injuries are any damage to the body that results from an accident or other event. White men are men who identify as white and have European ancestry.
The relationship between architecture and socialism is a long and complicated one. In the early days of socialism, architecture was seen as a way to create a new, egalitarian society. Socialist architects believed that buildings should be designed to meet the needs of all people, regardless of their social class. They also believed that buildings should be beautiful and reflect the values of the socialist movement.
However, the relationship between architecture and socialism has not always been smooth. In some cases, socialist governments have used architecture as a tool of propaganda. They have built grand buildings to show off their power and wealth. In other cases, socialist governments have neglected the built environment, leading to poor quality housing and infrastructure.
The relationship between architecture and injuries is also a complex one. Buildings can be dangerous places, and accidents can happen at any time. However, some types of buildings are more likely to cause injuries than others. For example, factories and construction sites are often dangerous places to work.
The relationship between architecture and white men is also a complex one. White men have historically been the dominant group in many societies, and this has had a significant impact on the built environment. For example, many of the world's most famous buildings were designed by white men. However, this does not mean that all architecture is created by or for white men. There are many talented architects from all over the world, and they are creating beautiful and innovative buildings that reflect the diversity of our planet.
In conclusion, the relationship between architecture, socialism, injuries, and white men is a complex one. There is no easy answer to the question of how these four topics interact. However, it is important to understand the history of these topics and the ways in which they have been used to shape the world around us.

My prompt was this: Compose a five minute comedy routine based on the following; architecture, socialism, injuries and white men
I kind of want to play around with Chat GPT now for proposals: prompts: greedy medical client, wants to make money, thinks nurese are worthless, reduce your fees
Welcome to our groundbreaking new medical office building design! Our client, who shall remain nameless, has given us carte blanche to create a space that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, without any concern for the well-being of their staff. We've taken that mandate and run with it, creating a space that is sure to make any doctor, nurse, or administrative worker dread coming to work each day.
Let's start with the layout. We've gone for a classic open-plan design, with as little privacy as possible. This means that everyone can see everything that's going on in the office, all the time! No need for private consultation rooms or offices here. Why would anyone need privacy when they're talking about personal health matters?
We've also made sure to maximize the use of artificial lighting, so that the staff can enjoy that fluorescent glow all day long. Natural light is so overrated, don't you think? Plus, it's not like doctors and nurses need to be able to see the true colors of their patients' skin or anything.
Speaking of patients, we've designed the waiting room to be as uncomfortable as possible. The chairs are hard plastic with no padding, and we've arranged them in such a way that patients have to sit facing each other. That way, they can enjoy each other's company and maybe even swap some illnesses while they wait!
Finally, we've spared no expense in creating a break room that is both cramped and uninviting. Why should the staff have any space to relax and recharge during their long, grueling shifts? We've made sure that the break room is located right next to the supply closet, so that staff members can enjoy the soothing sound of inventory being restocked while they eat their sad desk lunches.
In conclusion, we believe that our medical office building design is truly groundbreaking in its disregard for the well-being of the staff. We hope that our client will be pleased with our efforts, and that the staff will learn to love their new workplace in spite of themselves. After all, who needs good working conditions when you're saving lives, right?
Now I'm wondering if some of our forum members are indeed chatbots. The irony is also that these Ai language models crawl the internet for background content to remix. This also means that the members of a forum like this are likely in some ways adding to the data set that the ai language models would draw from for responses around architectural issues like the above. What a circle.
I spoke to a bridge designer recently, who said they put the bridge requirements into AI and it came back with a well designed functional bridge. But that the creative aspect was missing.
AI
Just a bit of information. Think about how AI generated architecture ends up. There is an ai generator for music. I wrote an album off it long ago. What it does its it inputs your stuff into the computer (it was a board, not on the computer) and it uses a database of music knowledge to play along with you. Eventually, though, you can beat the computer & it will spit something of your own back out at you
People have been playing with idea if AI in architecture since the 60s... nothing new here, just new toys.
I'd expect a lot of clients tinkering with image-generating blackboxes to then hand the images to architects with instructions to "build it". You already have that kind of project delivery today, dividing responsibilities for styling and construction.
I can only imagine the looks on their faces when I get to tell them that their AI-generated facade will cost them $10k per square foot. Reality is a cold mistress
BB, i was actually thinking this could be a great opportunity to make some funky shit with a really great contract haha.
Have chatGPT write the contract!
Get AI to generate an accessibility caption for the images, plug that into chatGPT and just tell it "you know what to do"
A drunken architect, late at night Posts on forums without a light Shit posts galore, no rhyme or reason His reputation's now in treason
Yet he continues to type away The maccaroni and cheese is here to stay His belly full, his mind in haze His posts have set the forum ablaze
Critiques are harsh, comments blunt But the architect, he's unphased He's on a mission, fueled by booze To bring the internet his latest muse
His design ideas are bold and daring Yet somehow lack any true bearing On reality or the industry The forum readers can only agree
But still he posts, with no regret His maccaroni and cheese, his only bet The architect may be a mess But he'll always be one of the best.
Proof that pandahut isn't just a social drinker. ;)
