Technologies, processes and tools between innovation and design quality

The growing performance of IT tools for the project allows to delegate entire phases of the conceptual and decision-making process thanks to the diffusion of algorithmic models referable to the category of artificial intelligence capable of automating important segments, if not the entire process of project production. The speed of evolution of these systems places us in a continuous transition phase in which it is necessary to reflect on the direction to be taken with respect to the many technical and IT opportunities. The text analyses the new instrumental and technical tools, reflecting on the limits and opportunities also with respect to the specific discipline of Architectural Technology, and on the need to reconsider the real meaning of their use.
