"Artificial intelligence is everywhere - from the apps on our phones to the algorithms of search engines. Without us noticing, the AI revolution has arrived. But what does this mean for the world of design? The first volume in a two-book series, Architecture in the Age of Artificial Intelligence introduces AI for designers and considers its positive potential for the future of architecture and design. Explaining what AI is and how it works, the book examines how different manifestations of AI will impactthe architectural profession. Highlighting current case-studies as well as near-future applications, it shows how AI is already being used as a powerful design tool, and how AI-driven information systems will soon transform the future of buildings and cities. Far-sighted, provocative and challenging, yet rooted in careful research and cautious speculation, this book, written by architect and theorist Neil Leach, is a must-read for all architects and designers - including students of architecture and all design professionals interested in keeping their practice at the cutting edge of technology"--

Artificial intelligence is everywhere – from the apps on our phones to the algorithms of search engines. Without us noticing, the AI revolution has arrived. But what does this mean for the world of design? The first volume in a two-book series, Architecture in the Age of Artificial Intelligence introduces AI for designers and considers its positive potential for the future of architecture and design.

Explaining what AI is and how it works, the book examines how different manifestations of AI will impact the discipline and profession of architecture. Highlighting current case-studies as well as near-future applications, it shows how AI is already being used as a powerful design tool, and how AI-driven information systems will soon transform the design of buildings and cities.

Far-sighted, provocative and challenging, yet rooted in careful research and cautious speculation, this book, written by architect and theorist Neil Leach, is a must-read for all architects and designers – including students of architecture and all design professionals interested in keeping their practice at the cutting edge of technology.

Arvustused

AI - which I like to call "Architectural Intelligence" - is a tool that will one day allow us architects to fly. This book, like all Neil Leach's books, is a multi-perspective view of a possible future for architecture. * Wolf dPrix, Design Principal, COOP HIMMELB(L)AU * A brand new set of tools has inspired a new wave of transformative creative energy within architecture. This book is essential reading for all who want to join the thrilling quest of bringing the power of AI into architecture. * Patrik Schumacher, Principal, Zaha Hadid Architects * Clearly written and well informed, this book is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in AI and its potential application in architecture. * Wanyu He, CEO, XKool * Critical in our current condition, Neil Leachs research into artificial intelligence broadens the implementation and importance of AI as a conceptual tool for students, designers, and thinkers. * Thom Mayne, Founding Partner, Morphosis *
