The AI adventure continues... I spent a few hours each with ChatGPT and Nano Banana (Gemini), to see how they approached the same 3D model with the same prompts, then to test how they handled corrections, etc.. NanoBanana (the second image) is supposed to be the most architecture-friendly of the AI models, but I have found it to be the most unreliable, inconsistent, and sometimes, defiant... with that said, they both had their strengths and struggles, and I ended up having to get multiple versions with different elements (neither ever got everything right in one image), then layer them in Photoshop to create the most "correct" rendering.

The house is another design that would be built (I hope it gets built, when the industry recovers) in Point Venture, across the street from the contemporary home that I posted previously.

This is a model based on the final plans for the home that was posted previously... but from a different angle, of course. This time, I used a photo of the actual lot (I'll post the original lot photo in the comments). The home will have a lake view (behind the viewer in this case), but being in a neighborhood (Point Venture), it will look a little different than the one in the previous rendering.

I'm going through some of my projects that I had already done simple 3D models of in their early conceptual stages, to learn effective and efficient AI prompting... the trial and error process is tedious and time consuming now, but as I learn the way AI models "think" and "understand", it will save a ton of time in the future over rendering using what will soon be the tools of the past.
