About

Neta Ben David is an architecture student at the Ariel School of Architecture and a research assistant at AAIRL. Her work focuses on the intersection of architectural design, AI, and human experience in built environments.

Neta’s research explores how artificial intelligence can predict human emotional responses to the built environment, helping designers evaluate buildings and urban spaces beyond conventional performance metrics. Her work contributes to the lab’s research directions in Synthetic Humans and Design AI.

Projects

Synthetic Humans Synthetic Humans This project investigates whether AI models can approximate selected dimensions of human spatial experience to provide early-stage design feedback — and rigorously identifies where they cannot.
