Generative artificial intelligence, GAI is already being employed as a tool by designers in what is referred to as machine co-creativity and augmented design, with the technology not only facilitating ideation but also used as a visioning tool (text-to-image software) for community engagement for public project. GAI, moreover, is capable of developing and handling the more practical aspects of design including detail plans, such as figuring out where plumbing and power lines belong in buildings..But there are limits to GAI applications, notably issues of quality and data bias - AI ‘learns’ by analysing existing data so it is afflicted by evidence of in-built bias - and underline the risk of, say, an entirely AI-planned housing project. That is, while GAI is useful as a tool to help create an architectural image, or to generate a seamless to-do-list for housing developers, it is not a blueprint for a complete building, at least for now.
