N2 - The role of technology in architectural design has progressively evolved from simple tool use to a significant participatory element in the creative process, primarily driven by advancements in digital and parametric design. This shift not only signifies technological advancement but also prompts a reevaluation of Techne (craftsmanship) and Episteme (knowledge) within the discipline. Traditionally, while technology enhanced efficiency, its contribution to conceptual ideation remained limited. The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), however, marks a transformative shift, positioning AI as a co-creative force actively engaged in the interpretative and conceptual stages of design. This study explores AI's potential to revolutionise the architectural design process by contrasting conventional practices in education with AI-driven methodologies; the research highlights AI's capacity to generate a more conversational and collaborative process. Though experimental research conducted over four years within architectural education, the study investigates AI's integration into design curriculum and practice, revealing that AI can significantly enhance workflow, creativity, and innovation. AI transcends its role as a tool, emerging as a potential intellectual partner. These findings suggest that AI is poised to reshape the future of architectural design, inviting further exploration into its role in advancing design methodologies and its transformative impact on the discipline.
