Le Collaborateur dans le placard
AI can be a collaborator for preparation, memory and reformulation. It does not sign, does not judge alone, and does not replace the architectural reading of the real.
The book describes a practice rather than celebrating or condemning the tool: how AI helps to classify, retrieve, reformulate, compare and check without erasing the architect’s responsibility.
It places AI between the intern and the collaborator — fast and useful, but unable to bear the consequences alone — and gives it a frame: charter, decision log, verification.
