A floor planning algorithm could empower designers, but could cease aiding the process in all kinds of ways. CAD has computerized previously analog drafting tools, greatly speeding up the drafting process. Computers, however, are capable of more; specifically, repetitive tasks in computation and analysis. I do not envision that a floor planning algorithm would run autonomously, but that it could provide real-time feedback from designer inputs, complementing the designer’s intuition and creativity with its calculated intuition.
