Abstract
Amid the accelerating use of Large Language Models (LLMs) in the domain of architectural and urban design visualizations, the nuanced potential of embedding them into larger design methodologies is yet to be comprehensively examined. This investigation offers an innovative method for implementing LLMs in the urban design context by embracing their potential as roleplaying characters, bridging programming
and natural language realms. Integrating Wolfram Mathematica with OpenAI's ChatGPT API, we propose a logistic framework that assigns design tasks via role-play to LLM-based AI like the GPT-4 and Midjourney V5. A hypothetical superblock in Barcelona serves as the site of speculation for the framework, suggesting the cohabitation of diverse intelligences within urban design processes.
