Will architects be replaced in their positions by artificial intelligence? Thomas Lane claims that AI may automate up to 37% of the work that engineers and architects normally do in the May 2023 issue of Building magazine. However, it is likely that mundane and less creative jobs will be the focus of this automation, freeing up professionals to focus on more creative and strategic aspects of their work.
The same is true of AI tools—just as Revit and 3D software did not replace architects, but rather changed their workflows. AI is about to change the landscape of architecture by bringing with it new duties like AI management in addition to current ones.
Early in 2023, the volume of photos produced by AI systems like Midjourney has left manyarchitects thinking about the ramifications. While there's a common fear that artificial intelligence will become omnipotent, architects are curious in AI and actively investigating its potential integration into their work in an effort to understand its potential uses in their industry.
It seems unlikely that AI will soon completely replace architects. The architectural scene is changing quickly, and while new applications will always emerge, our understanding of AI's potential and limitations is increasingly becoming more apparent. A clearer knowledge of how AI might influence and revolutionize our professional activities is being shaped by this growing awareness.
Until AI emerges victorious in a competition for architectural design, we have nothing to fear.
