The rapid development of artificial intelligence in production systems is providing a significant transformation in architecture and design disciplines. The integration of artificial intelligence technologies, text-to-image generation, 3D modeling and digital fabrication processes opens up new possibilities in architectural design and production processes. The aim of this study is to reveal the transformation created by artificial intelligence in architectural design and digital fabrication processes and to discuss this transformation through an implementation process from design to production.The study aims to discuss the design process update on the impact of artificial intelligence on architectural design processes. This design process is planned in seven stages: programming, data collection, analysis, synthesis, evaluation, development and communication. These stages were compiled as a result of literature research. The equivalents of the stages of the design process determined within the scope of the study will be discussed in the design process aided by artificial intelligence. The effect of artificial intelligence on this process, which starts with the generation of the first ideas and goes up to production with digital fabrication, will be aided by an applied example. The process progresses from text to visual, from visual to 3D and from 3D printing to the final product. Thus, the positive and negative aspects of the integration of artificial intelligence into the architectural design process, the role of artificial intelligence as a designer and the potentials it creates in the design process will be discussed.
