I thought the UE4 reference scene looked familiar.[0][1] Now that room can get some proper interior decorating!

The origin fascinate me:

>It started off as an app to simulate housing in an MMORPG, since the furniture system there was atrocious.

I'm going to quote part of a comment I made five and a half years ago that I dredged up:

"Neural nets can probably be used for level design today. One use case might be creating an entire urban environment complete with residential interiors, where the artists don't have to slave over each individual apartment for it to be believable. Imagine playing a war game where the levels look like there's actually people living there."[2]

AI's advanced a bit since then, to put it mildly. Seems some apps are already there.[3]

Interior design tools, archviz and gamedev are all different things, of course. In any case, cool project!

Looks like that UE4 scene is pretty recognizable! It's credited, of course [1]

Using AI in interior design is very interesting, and something I should look more into. I'll be interested to see how well the AI performs - will probably give some of the apps on the list you linked a try.
