Artificial intelligence-based techniques for design generation in virtual environments

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the steps of:

• causing one or more candidate designs to be displayed within a virtual-reality (VR) environment;
• receiving a user input associated with a first candidate design included in the one or more candidate designs via the VR environment;
• generating a modified design based at least on the user input and the first candidate design;
• and
• generating a plurality of output designs via a generative design process based on the modified design.

A system, comprising:

• a memory that stores instructions;
• and
• a processor that is communicatively coupled to the memory and is configured to, when executing the instructions, perform the steps of:
• causing one or more candidate designs to be displayed within a virtual-reality (VR) environment;
• receiving a user input associated with a first candidate design included in the one or more candidate designs via the VR environment;
• generating a modified design based at least on the user input and the first candidate design;
• and
• generating a plurality of output designs via a generative design process based on the modified design.
