It recently unveiled what it calls Vitruvius, an AI program that helps consumers design custom homes online and get the plans, making the process cheaper and faster.
Vitruvius can recall every design and possibility it's ever seen, according to Ballard.
Though other AI models have gotten into hot water for potential copyright infringement, Ballard said he isn't concerned in this case.
"I have no doubt that tools like this are going to change the way that we do things."
Ballard said the implications of AI in architecture extend beyond just consumers looking to save on architecture fees.
