Gemini and ChatGPT were both valuable throughout the AI-assisted workflow, but they contributed in different ways. Gemini was more effective during the research stage by providing information about tropical climate conditions, sustainable design principles, environmental analysis, and educational building requirements. ChatGPT was more effective during the concept development stage by transforming the research into a coherent architectural proposal, including the Climate Atrium, five ecosystem-based spaces, spatial organization, massing development, and presentation narrative.
The main difference is that Gemini supported research and understanding, while ChatGPT supported interpretation and architectural design development. Gemini helped establish the project's foundation, whereas ChatGPT helped convert information into a practical and visually communicable architectural concept. Human judgment remained essential in selecting ideas, refining the concept, and making final design decisions.
