| Abstract | ||||
| AI is a fast-emerging field and is becoming an essential part of our future. Recently, most of used technologies are somewhat artificially intelligent, where it still needs human involvement to carry out the main part of the task. AI has a significant impact on multiple fields and industries, like IT, cybersecurity, medicine, and manufacturing since it provides them with countless creative opportunities. Compared to the mentioned fields, the development of AI in Architecture is still not commonly used. The dominant idea related to Architecture is that designers will be replaced by smart robots to create art and design buildings. But on the contrary, the open-ended creative results are still preserved for humans only. AI can do endless tasks during Architecture design process requiring human intelligence such as decision-making. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the role, advantages, and disadvantages of this technology within the design process from the viewpoint of professionals. Consequently, a Questionnaire will be held to several Professional Designers, Architects, and Researchers, then a summary of their responses will be reported in this article. The aim is to recognize how AI techniques can affect the Architect`s attitude to the design project. | ||||
