Chat with BIM Model using AI

Chat with BIM Model using AI

Hello AUTODESK, 

 

I don't know if you all are already working in this feature, but it would be awesome if we could chat with a BIM model right in Revit. 

 

ex: "turn all the doors to red" , "turn off all elements except the structural element" ...

 

PEACE

Integrate ChatGPT style AI for simple design/drafting procedures.

 

Examples:

 

"Resize ducts downstream of Terminal Units using 800 Feet Per Minute velocity and using only even size rectangular ductwork and maintain a 3:2 WxH aspect ratio. Runouts to diffusers shall be round duct with diameter matching the neck size of the diffuser and the last 5' is flex duct."

 

"Increase breaker size of any overloaded circuit breakers"

 

"Produce a list of toilet rooms that do not have a 5' radius for wheelchair accessibility"

Wouldn't it be great to have AI assist us in Dynamo routines creation directly within the Revit interface? Same as tutorials, macros, and so on? Thanks

It would be nice to have a chatbot assistance for revit and Api handling.

As AI is becoming a part of day to day life, integrating it with Revit would make work quick and easy.

My name is Franky Lee.  I have been in architectural industry for over 25 years.   Our firm has been using Revit for over 17 years.

 

I would like to see if Autodesk has any plan to implement AI to the software.  I have suggestions that Autodesk may consider below.

1. Building code implementation - the software can help to identify building type limitation, calculation allowable area, open frontage, etc.

2. Automatic design structural and MEP system when architect in the process of designing the building

3. Automatic dimensioning, showing wall, door tag with correct rating

4. Checking conflicts in between all the design disciplines.

5. Helping to monitor office standard

 

There are so many thing AI can assist to leverage the drafting leg work.

Implement AI within Revit so that users can give natural language instructions for Revit to implement.

The link for the video below is an example of the intent except we don't want to have to program the AI application.  We want it built into Revit.

This is one of the worst directions Autodesk could take Revit I've seen on this forum and I've seen a lot. If I'm wrong, and this is the future, this is my request to skynet to end me quickly for not believing.

 

Why would I want to create an intern surrogate to go between me and Revit for such trivial tasks. Do we want the building to just design itself? Like why be a designer if you want to let the computer make all of the decisions for you? What's the competitive advantage of your firm, you generate the same exact design as every one of your competitors?

 

What was demonstrated is that having executed this code perfectly in one shot (all troubleshooting and research done off-camera), this person deleted 2 roofs, created and exported a column schedule, and renamed 6 rooms...in 3 hours. Let's assume this is built in to Revit...still took 3 minutes 30 seconds. You could perhaps convince me of the utility by demonstrating more complex things like "renumber doors by room" and see if it is faster and more accurate than OOTB or other plugins. I'll quit my job if you can get it to "model placeholder columns on all gridlines from -3' from level 1 to top of the massing, add girders and beams, use the loading criteria from a room parameter, incorporate the geotech report, calc it out with RAM and import the results, tag everything, import all the standard details, ensure it's code and FM compliant, and then get the EOR to sign and seal the drawings." That still saves the "fun" work for a human right?

 

Right now, this is just a way to have a computer take longer to do trivial tasks (while also potentially lying to you), while simultaneously burning more carbon in some data center than your building could hope to consume (embodied and operationally) even under the most malicious BMS or occupant.

 

If anything, please just be content to leave this as a 3rd-party plugin so others can waste time uselessly shouting at their computer instead of just doing the work.

 

Bonus: ask chatgpt how many r's are in the word strawberry:

I've come across "DWD" (https://apps.autodesk.com/RVT/en/Detail/Index?id=3508730715161015525&appLang=en&os=Win64) and "Pele" (https://apps.autodesk.com/RVT/in/Detail/Index?id=2693352121088495598&appLang=en&os=Win64) and I think this is the sort of thing we should be seeing built into Revit soon, hopefully in the next release.

This idea should be merged with this one.

Revit should start an AI integration that is self-learning and can learn how to annotate drawings based on an example view. This would greatly increase the efficiency of the architecture and design field and I'm surprised it hasn't come out yet. At the very least, there should be an AI feature where you can search how to do something and it gives you suggestions for multiple different ways to achieve what you're looking for.
