I got the idea, the main reason AI won your competition is simple: The AI architectural concepts looked conventional. It looks like the shiny photographs from shiny architectural magazines. While your human-made concept was more thought through and of deeper understanding of site and customer, which was immidiately visible to me. AI in the current form leads to conventionalism.

For an architecture channel, you sure provide alot of thought-provoking ideas. I always enjoy your videos!

It's funny how AI is nailing the "gut feeling" aspect of things rather than what we always assumed would be a more logical preference. Like giving people what they want is more important than practicality or tangibility. Instead of something highly objective, we've got something that's hyper-subjective.

I'm an IT engineer and I started working with chat GPT about a month ago.

I was already pretty good at coding (mostly scripting) but working with AI I've made about a year of progress in a month. It can also break down and explain errors so you can fix issues more quickly. It's really insane. At this time there's no way it can replace an IT entirely but for specific tasks, it's a game changer.

I remember our days in architecture school when we had a quiz there was a girl kind of ignoring the description of quiz (Not completely )and she was giving her imagination the freedom to do what she want to do, the surprise she was getting A+ while other who follow the instruction literally got B and some says oh thats not fair, human is a mass of feeling and you gotta find the way to manipulate his mind as an architect

Having been in the Architectural and structural design field for 43 years, that was surprising, but in architecture I’ve heard it said “everything has been done, we are just copying, (cutting and pasting also). Since I’m on my way out, I am not afraid of being replaced. AI is doing what CAD (Revit and AutoCad) is doing now. The details need to be worked out. “The Devil is in the Details.” Thank you this was very interesting! AI Designs look pretty good, one looked like it was influenced by Cutler/Anderson.

[Sergei_Ivanovich_Mosin]

It's kinda ironic, we always figured the creative process would always be human controlled while the actual construction part would be replaced by machines, meanwhile the opposite is happening with AI becoming extremely good at creative processes while the on site labour is actually the part that's very hard to replace with machines

[valesteri]

The quality of all your videos is astounding, always keeping your watchers educated and entertained, and always learning something new. Thank you to you and your team for never failing to deliver an amazing video. Keep up the amazing work

[justamanofculture]

Aside from the AI, this Cinematography of this video is a Masterpiece 💯. Amazing

[MrAmmarTV]

That video was the next level, very well done guys

[Ridu]

Daniel has been one of my favorite YouTubers for a while! I'm so glad you guys collaborated!

[joaovitordornelles]

broooo i have to say, i found out about your channel couple hours ago and im completely AMAZED, all the content u do is great, the way you write the script and the whole production is top notch!!!

[davidbrown]

That’s absolutely wild and shocking it won by such a huge margin! Great topic, thanks for the insight

It looks like the AIs you used use a LOT of Pinterest. Seriously, my Pinterest is full of these renderings and fotos of beautiful houses and these look EXACTLY like the ones I see on my for you page. Like, even down to the environment and colour grading. I would still make the case that these are somewhat human designed buildings, because these seem like copies to me. Similar to what Dall•E does with art. There where lots of artists who felt like their art was used (stolen!) by this AI, and I have a feeling that a lot of architects might be able to recognize parts of their work in these AI renderings.

[captjerski]

The angle of perspectives done by AI is low vanishing point or VP in which it gives appeal, height and drama ( I am a animation layout artist ).

[derekgarvin]

Spectacular video.

Setting aside general AI, things like midjourney and ChatGPT will increase productivity. A skilled person can use AI to speed up their work in ways an unskilled person can't. For example, an artist can draw the pictures necessary to train the AI to iterate the subject in different situations. Having a skill is still very useful. It's just that a single person will now have the power of a small studio at their command.

[eleycki]

Architecture is so much more than sketching pretty shapes for plans and producing renders (that look like every other AI image!).
AI will also never deal with tricky contractors and angry clients. Without architects the design team would have no idea what they are doing most of the time.

[brenolad]

This reminds me of hand-drawn animation vs CG animation in the 90's. I was terrified I would be replaced by lifeless 3D geometric art. Alas that's not quite the case, I'm thriving right now. History repeats itself.

[vedantwagh]

as a student currently studying to become an Architect
i do sometimes have this in the back of my mind that AI might replace Architects by the time I become one
But yes everything has 2 sides : a good and a bad
and seemingly you covered it here (Thanks!)
and this is what keeps me motivated to move towards my goal

[iconax]

This video is actually scary for me as a designer. What you pointed out about the votes being done on a 'gut feeling' basis is the part that concerns me most. I feel like clients will soon input information about a site and AI will spew out something that "on a gut feeling" looks better to a client that anything I as a human can. I say this because as much as we as humans can improve our skill set, I feel that AI will only improve it's skill set much quicker. I'm already dealing with a client who "designed a house" on Revit after teaching himself the software from YouTube videos. If there is software that he doesn't need to learn or physically action himself that can produce good/great looking results, he would have bypassed me completely.
