An imaginary scenario where we dig into one of this era’s social norms but in the upcoming age of intellegence.
Project Focus For our Graph Machine Learning project, wanted to look at the city of Kyoto and Tourism Behavior around Cherry blossom patterns. Specifically, we set out to find out how cherry blossom patterns might affect the behavior and walking paths of tourists within the city. Data Sets We started by collecting our data sets … Read more
GENERATIVE AI Abstract In today’s evolving architectural landscape, the convergence of technology and design offers unprecedented opportunities to enhance human well-being and promote sustainability. At the forefront of this innovation is ISO-COMFORT, a pioneering project that leverages Generative AI to create isometric models emphasizing thermal comfort and sustainable design. This blog post explores the development … Read more
Hypothesis The goal of this research was to investigate if open spatial data could predict Yelp ratings utilizing graph machine learning (GML) methods. We hypothesize that urban phenomena, events, and objects will indicate customer reviews and popularity, and therefore, could be used predict ratings. In particular, we perform edge classification using the DGL library. For … Read more
Abstract The project explores the implementation of machine learning models to generate LEGO building instructions manuals and providing a detailed description of the set. We employee diffusion models along with LLM (Large Language Model) to generate both the images of the Lego set and its description. LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) we train a stable diffusion model … Read more
A conversation in which Jane Jacobs and Rem Koolhaas try to get LeCorbusier to think differently about the city… or the opposite! The Challenge We used Conversable Agents and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to simulate a discussion between three influential architects: Jane Jacobs, Rem Koolhaas, and Le Corbusier. These theorists have shaped our understanding of the … Read more
https://github.com/ronmaccms/llm-chatbot.git Can AI Help Us Regulate Itself? AI is rapidly transforming the world. One critical question is whether AI can help regulate itself. By training a LLM on a comprehensive set of research papers, we can explore AI’s potential to provide insights into its own governance and ethical use. The research investigates how national policies … Read more
Artificial Inspiration – Dissecting the Creative Process Creativity is often viewed as a uniquely human trait, emerging from the processes of study, interpretation, replication, and mixing variables to create new combinations and results. This project explores whether it is possible to develop a framework based on these principles that AI can reproduce and whether this … Read more
Insights into the effects of weather data in Argentina, with implications for sustainable land management, deforestation and conservation policies, agriculture, industry and economies. Climate change, in particular the decrease in precipitation, is predicted to have significant effects on the living conditions in Argentina, affecting agricultural production, sea level rise, hydroelectric energy. The dataset composition consists … Read more
To predict whether a location in Barcelona is a key tourist site or not using graph data and specific contextual features, including the impact of the PEUAT plan on regulating tourist accommodations. The features explored and the URL selected on the Barcelona open data are score or indicator related to the tourism plan PEUAT, Proportion … Read more
Introduction The architectural profession is on the cusp of taking a revolutionary turn with the emergence of AI that is rapidly gaining momentum, but, in the midst of potentially great deviations that will come along not because of the involvement of AI in the architectural design, there exists certain downsides to it that must be … Read more
In our increasingly interconnected world, the relationship between humans and AI has often been characterized by a master-slave dynamic. This imbalance raises significant ethical and social implications, necessitating a shift towards mutual respect and collaboration. Our vision reimagines societal structures as rhizomatic connections: non-hierarchical, interconnected, and decentralized. We envision a coalition of all intelligences—biological, artificial, … Read more

Wikipedia Born: July 1, 1646, Leipzig, Germany Died: November 14, 1716 (age 70 years), Hanover, Germany Influenced by: René Descartes, Baruch Spinoza, Aristotle, Plato · See more Influenced: Immanuel Kant, Georg … Read more
Our study aims to explore the history and impact of artificial intelligence on interactions of young people, examining how integrating AI technologies into everyday life influences self-perception and interpersonal interactions, ultimately transforming societal structures and relationships. The pervasive presence of AI in the lives of young people is reshaping social norms and identities, blurring the … Read more
An exploratory design process of spaces into atmospheric and phenomenological experiences through lighting design. The primary objectives of this project are to develop a robust generative AI workflow that can seamlessly integrate into the architectural design process, enhancing the atmospheric and phenomenological qualities of spaces through lighting design. This workflow aims to provide users with … Read more
