The recent popularity of artificial intelligence image tools such as Dall-E 2 of Openai and Google Research's image has asked new questions about creativity and artistic integrity.
These new tools can create realistic images or give way to your robotics creativity to generate other artistic solutions, illustrations and designs from a series of "labels" or descriptions that we indicate in our usual language.
The results are surprising and open a field of generation of ideas and plasma of projects for the architect and designer. The inevitable controversy of whether AI will also end up harming certain sectors, especially now that its use is opening to everyone.
There are architects who are already taking advantage of them.
Manas Bhatia, for example, has a bold view of the future: one in which residential skyscrapers covered with trees, plants and algae act as "air purification towers."
In a series of detailed images, this computer architect and designer based in New Delhi has given life to the idea. Its imagined buildings are represented by rising above a futuristic metropolis, its curved forms inspired by the forms found in nature.
But the images were not entirely of their own imagination. For his conceptual project, "AI X Future Cities," Bhatia turned to an artificial intelligence image tool, Midjourney.
With phrases such as "futuristic towers", "utopian technology", "symbiotic" and "bioluminescent material", Midjourney produced a series of digital images that Bhatia modified even more when perfecting the indications. Who should receive credit for the art of the art of Ia?
In another project, entitled "Symbiotic Architecture", Bhatia imagined a future in which buildings are made of living materials. Using indications such as "giant" and "hole", he produced images of what he called a "utopian future" in which apartments are formed inside the size of Secayas.
These tools combined with the parametric design of buildings, or with the reproduction of interior designs
They can be amazing for the sector.
In the near future, we will see the architects and designers unfailingly using AI tools.
