Worth noticing
The site labels its architectural concepts as generated studies, not renderings of a finished building.

Field notes

The homepage lays out a three-step workflow: generate ideas from distinct seeds, have a person choose blind to their origins, then develop the selected concept through models and drawings. It describes critic review and fresh outside material as part of development, while noting that the quality benefit remains unproven. The architectural examples are explicitly identified as generated concept studies rather than depictions of a finished building.
