Paradigm Shift in Architectural Pedagogy incorporating Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

Abstract: The paradigm shift in architectural pedagogy encompasses various facets, each contributing to a holistic transformation of the educational landscape. From computational design methodologies to generative algorithms, AI empowers students to explore a vast array of design possibilities, pushing the boundaries of creativity and problem-solving. The goal of this study is to understand the paradigm shifts in the constantly changing fields of architectural education with the incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This change transforms architectural teaching fundamentally in addition to redefining architectural practice approaches. Now that we are at the crossroads of technology innovation and human creativity, it is critical to investigate how artificial intelligence (AI) might transform architecture education and promote creativity, sustainability, and adaptation. The primary exploration reveals a significant gap in the current teaching methods, with little emphasis on AI. The study emphasizes the urgency of incorporating certain approaches into architectural education along with AI which would enhance learning experience of the students.
