Computational Designers Meetup - Packhunt x BouT

Designing in the Age of AI: Purpose, Ethics, and Jobs

Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how we design, build, and think about architecture. While the fear of AI replacing architects often grabs headlines, the reality is more nuanced. The true transformation lies not in AI itself, but in how we learn to use it.

This Computational Designers Meetup (Speed Date) will explore the evolving role of the architect in the age of AI, focusing on three core themes: Purpose, Ethics, and Jobs. The event is structured to encourage a lively and interactive exchange of ideas through a format of dynamic presentations, moderated discussions, and a dedicated networking session.

• Purpose: Industry leaders will showcase their latest advancements and real-world applications of AI, demonstrating how it is used in practice to enhance creativity and streamline workflows.
• Ethics: Students and recent graduates will engage with industry professionals to tackle complex ethical questions, including concerns around authorship and algorithmic bias in design.
• Jobs: This open forum and networking session is an opportunity for attendees to voice their concerns and gain insights directly from industry representatives on what skills the market is currently seeking from new talent.

Join us as we collectively debate if AI is a threat, a tool, or an indispensable teammate in the future of architectural practice.
