As AI rapidly permeates architectural practice, large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated their potential not only as general knowledge tools but also as possible collaborators in design workflows. However, a significant research gap persists: while LLMs like OpenAI’s GPT-4 and Google’s Gemini are now widely accessible, there is limited empirical research comparing their ability to serve as design advisors — especially in analyzing early-stage architectural data, which is inherently visual, geometric and contextual.
Join Mithun’s Anik Alam and Koushik Srinath for “Comparative Evaluation of GPT4 and Gemini for Sustainability-Oriented Design Critique in Conceptual Architecture,” a presentation that will share findings from our firm-wide comparative study on how emerging LLMs can support sustainability-focused design critique in early-stage architectural workflows. Attendees will learn a reproducible method for embedding AI-driven feedback loops into early design practice.
Wentworth Institute of Technology’s Ignacio Cardona will moderate this research session.
