A focused workshop on the evolving intersection of design, data, and artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming architectural practice from how we visualize design intent to how we verify code compliance. Join the AIA San Diego TAP Committee for an evening exploring the expanding landscape of AI tools shaping architecture today.
This session will feature live demos and discussion across a range of emerging platforms from visualization engines like Kling AI, Runway ML, and Sora, to practical design assistants such as UpCodes AI and ChatGPT. We’ll also dive into a new framework for understanding how to identify and categorize AI tools, helping you evaluate which systems align with your workflow, from concept design to documentation.
Whether you’re just beginning to explore AI or are already integrating it into your projects, this session will offer real-world insights and examples from architects using these tools every day.
