Abstracts

PL
W artykule zaprezentowany został sposób działania opartego na sztucznej inteligencji skryptu generatywnego MidJourney w kontekście potencjału jego wykorzystania w praktyce architektonicznej. Celem badań jest prezentacja możliwości narzędzia we wspomaganiu procesów twórczych. Omówienie działania skryptu przeprowadzono w oparciu o autorskie badania będące wynikiem pracy z narzędziem – czytelne przykłady są podstawą przybliżenia czytelnikowi mechaniki działania skryptu i wskazania przypadków, w których proces ten nosi znamiona zdolności poprawnego, autonomicznego myślenia. Rezultat badań, niebędący jedynie opisem, widoczny również na zamieszczonych w artykule wygenerowanych przez skrypt cyfrowych obrazach, ukazuje w pełni potencjał MidJourney. Na podstawie tych obrazów dokonano analizy przydatności narzędzia w pracy nad projektem architektonicznym.

The article presents an overview of how the MidJourney generative script based on artificial intelligence works for its potential use in architectural practice. The purpose of the research is to present the potential of the tool in the context of supporting creative processes. The discussion of the performance of the script was carried out on the basis of the author’s research resulting from work conducted with the tool; clear examples are the basis for introducing the reader to the mechanics of the script’s operation and pointing out cases in which the process bears the hallmarks of the ability of correct autonomous thinking. The result of the research, not merely a description, but visible also in the digital images generated by the script included in the article, shows the full potential of the tool. On the basis of these findings, its usefulness in architectural design practice was analysed.
