Title:
Exploring ChatGPT
For this exploration, I used ChatGPT to assist with idea generation, writing support, and architectural discussions. I tested different prompts related to design concepts, space planning, and AI in architecture to observe how the platform responds and develops information.
• Asked ChatGPT to generate architectural concepts.
• Used prompts related to sustainable design and space organization.
• Tested its ability to improve writing and presentation content.
• Explored how it explains complex ideas in a simpler way.
ChatGPT is useful for brainstorming and organizing ideas quickly. It can provide clear explanations and support the early stages of design thinking. However, some responses were repetitive or too general, which required editing and personal judgment.
This tool helped me save time during research and idea development. Although it cannot replace human creativity, it can be a supportive assistant during the design process.
Title:
Exploring Gemini
In this activity, I explored Gemini to understand how it responds to architectural and creative prompts. I compared its responses with other AI tools to observe differences in style, detail, and accuracy.
• Generated ideas for architectural concepts.
• Asked questions about sustainable and smart buildings.
• Explored image and text generation features.
• Compared the responses with ChatGPT.
Gemini provided detailed responses and sometimes offered broader explanations. It was useful for research and expanding ideas, especially when exploring design-related topics.
Gemini showed strong analytical abilities, but some responses were too long or lacked creativity. Human editing was still important to make the information clearer and more suitable for academic use.
Title:
Exploring Perplexity AI
For this exploration, I used Perplexity AI to research information related to architecture and artificial intelligence. The platform focuses on providing answers with references and sources.
• Searched for information about AI in architecture.
• Explored articles and referenced answers.
• Compared research accuracy with other AI tools.
• Used it to support academic understanding.
Perplexity AI is useful for finding summarized information with sources, making it helpful for research purposes. It provided quick access to information and improved the research process.
This tool was effective for academic research, but it still required checking and evaluating sources carefully. It is useful as a support tool rather than a complete replacement for independent research.
