‘It’s already way beyond what humans can do’: will AI wipe out architects?::It’s revolutionising building – but could AI kill off an entire profession? Perhaps not, finds our writer, as he enters a world where Corbusier-style marvels and 500-room hotels are just a click away

      In general, are you a fan of Le Corbusier buildings designed by humans? If you aren’t, you may be blaming AI for not liking the architect’s style. I ask because IMO the AI really nailed his style, but it’s d finitely not for everyone.

      Same goes for the pic of the Zaha Hadid building further down the article. It’s so close to something she would have designed that I immediately recognized it.

      Still reading the article but outside appearance is also a tiny part of an architects job, and probably the easiest part. Can AI intelligently spec out every aspect of the building and its systems?

        That’s exactly what they are building. Very impressive work.
