072: ‘One Model to Rule Them All’, with Theodoros Galanos

Special guest Theodoros Galanos of ArchiText joins the podcast to talk about artificial intelligence (AI) as it relates to architectural design using written language. More specifically, we talk about how his ArchiText tool is beginning by generating residential floor plan layouts now and where it may go in the future. We also talk about this in the context of democratizing design, how he trained the language model, what biases and gaps potentially exist in the data used for the training, the vision of end-to-end design workflows, what this could mean for the future of the profession, how he got started down this path, the notion of AI as oracles, deep learning models, and more.
