Architectural Ambiance: ChatGPT Versus Human Perception

Résumé

Architectural ambiance refers to the mood perceived in a built environment, assessed through human reactions to virtual drawings of prospective spaces. This paper investigates the use of a ready-made artificial intelligence model to automate this task. Based on professional BIM models, videos of virtual tours of typical urban areas were built: a business district, a strip mall, and a residential area. GPT-4V was used to assess the aesthetic quality of the built environment based on keyframes of the videos and characterize these spaces shaped by subjective attributes. The spatial qualities analyzed through subjective human experience include space and scale, enclosure, style, and overall feelings. These factors were assessed with a diverse set of mood attributes, ranging from balance and protection to elegance, simplicity, or nostalgia. Human participants were surveyed with the same questions based on the videos. The answers were compared and analyzed according to these subjective attributes. Our findings indicate that, while GPT-4V demonstrates adequate proficiency in interpreting urban spaces, there are significant differences between the AI and human evaluators. In nine out of twelve cases, the AI’s assessments aligned with the majority of human voters. The business district environment proved more challenging to assess, while the green environment was effectively modeled.
