From not a clue to I ́m the boss of AI
Hi, this is Isma 👋
There are so many posts on LinkedIn about AI.
Flux, Loras, Generative AI…
I keep an eye on the interesting things that I come across, and I try the coolest ones myself to understand their real capabilities.
Add it to my workflow.
Like ComfyUI, or training custom models, for example. That´s cool.
I played around with Stable Diffusion as well, with automatic11, before…
Bive coding. 100%…
I find this fun.
But at the same time, lately I have been thinking about what would be one of the “ultimate” workflows for architects.
Smartly leverage all this.
It is much faster to produce concept designs now, with ultra-enhanced realism:
With sketch to image, image to image, image to 3d, and image to video.
Being much faster. I like that.
Being in control. I like that too.
Where does “traditional” computational design fit in a workflow like that?
More control during the initial stages, plus faster iteration?
Software interoperability? From conceptual models to rationalized BIM?
…
How many architects are modifying their workflows to introduce AI?
How I see it: AI is for everybody. Like the internet.
While the user experience improves, there´s not much of a learning curve.
It is not the same for Computational Design / Parametric Design…
This is how my LinkedIn feed looks: mostly AI and software… but, at the same time.
Two weeks ago, I was on a super nice beach in the Bahamas, talking with a Spanish architect.
He designs villas in Nassau.
Almost all his job is: hand drawings and AutoCAD.
No AI. No BIM. No Parametric Design.
…
Opposite sides of the same coin.
I would love to hear your thoughts on this.
Yes yours.
PS: I will be in NY next week. If you live there and want to meet, I´m in.
