About this conversation

Technology and AI are changing the built environment, but the useful question is not whether tools are impressive. It is where they save time, improve thinking and create better professional judgement.

Stephen Drew speaks with Jordan Harris about AI, generative design, BIM, visualisation, coding, the metaverse and the skills architecture professionals need as technology becomes part of everyday practice.

The conversation covers:

How AI tools learn and why they can make unpredictable mistakes

Where visualisation and BIM tools can improve design workflows

Why automation is strongest when it removes repetitive work
