Artificial Intelligence in Architectural Education Study on Students of the Faculty of Architecture in Egypt

Using artificial intelligence (AI) in education is increasing, and government and non-governmental organizations worldwide are developing policies and guidelines to support its safe implementation. However, there is a need to bridge the gap between theoretical and practical AI applications to design and implement educational policies. AI can revolutionize architectural education by simplifying complex concepts such as design principles and formulating ideas and concepts. AI tools can help create original images from textual descriptions and enhance creativity during the conceptual design phase. Integrating AI into curricula can increase awareness of various aspects of architectural design, benefiting the field of architecture. AI applications can also help solve design challenges, from material design to architectural plan solutions, necessitating further research in this area. By leveraging AI in online education systems, institutions can enhance student engagement, assess effectiveness, personalize interactions, and address common shortcomings in traditional online teaching methods.

The research reviews some AI tools used in architectural education, followed by an analytical approach to studying the impact of these tools on a sample of students from the Faculty of Architecture in Egypt through some specialized and general courses. The study concludes by presenting the benefits of using these tools in architectural education and offering ideas for future applications A proposed mechanism for teachers to apply it, and their impact on educational policies. The research concludes by presenting some artificial intelligence platforms and their impact on students’ performance in architectural education curricula, with a survey of their opinions and the extent to which these technologies are compatible with their studies and their impact on their practical performance.
