Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping architectural planning and design, offering new possibilities for efficiency, creativity, and functionality. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of recent advancements in AI applications within the architectural domain. It covers AI-driven design tools, generative design algorithms, and optimization techniques that support architects in creating innovative and adaptive designs. The study highlights AI’s impact on various stages of the architectural process, from conceptual design to construction management. We discuss case studies where AI has been successfully implemented to streamline workflows, enhance design accuracy, and facilitate data-driven decision-making. The paper also addresses the ethical considerations and potential limitations associated with AI in architecture, such as the dependence on accurate data inputs and the risk of reducing the role of human creativity.
