About this conversation

Most people think AI in architecture stops at generating a nice image. In this episode, Bill Allen from Chaos explains why the bigger shift is what happens when AI starts working inside Revit, Rhino and SketchUp.

They get into AI rendering, agentic tools, automated construction drawings and the move from modelling to render, to rendering to model. Bill also explains why architects still need to understand the “why” behind their work, what practices should look for when hiring, and why students should learn how to learn instead of becoming too attached to one piece of software.

Hello everyone, and welcome to this episode. Now, by the time this comes out. Hopefully the robots haven't taken over the world, but it is 2026 baby. And we're all talking about AI. I know I am that insufferable person that won't shut up about it. So if you do not want to watch this episode and talk about technology and architecture, I understand.

Click away now. But if you do, then I've got a great show for you here. Back when I was a student, before all this kicked off, I used to use freely S Max and V-Ray and I used to love it. And that piece of software was made by a company, and I think there was called the Chaos Engine.
