Revit 2027 AI Edition

 Greetings Fuckfaces!!!

 As promised, I'm going to submit myself to reviewing the latest and 'greatest' (using that term in the loosest possible context) version of Autodesks flagship BIM software. (I didn't realize until after I posted this that I never did a 2026 review, but what the fuck ever). 

Of course, in the Year of Fuck The Lord 2026, what is guaranteed to be the first goddamned item on the list? You guessed it - A fucking I.

That's right, you unworthy limp dick motherfuckers - Revit 2027 is introducing 'AI-assisted workflows, performance improvements, cloud connected BIM, and enhanced automation for faster, more coordinated design'. 

What the fuck does that mean? Fucked if I know (and fucked if whoever posted knows either) - but it's item 1 of 8.

Oh - and was that (and the rest of this list) most likely written by an AI? For fucking sure.

For #2 we get the ever present 'performance enhancements' (padding early as usual) so that unlike 2026 Revit, the latest version will actually run *an eensie bit* less like dogshit - even on hardware far exceeding their recommendations. 

#3 and we're talking about 'Extended BIM Data and Cloud Integration' - so in addition to repeating #1,  we're gonna babble about Autodesk Forma. 

What is Autodesk Forma, you might ask? According to their website it is 'Your go-to AI-powered cloud software for site planning and analysis'. That's right - #3 is advertising another piece of Autodesk software - and repeating the same handful of buzzwords like it's some kind of mantra, while sounding suspiciously like a bullshit generator: 'extended properties allow cloud-governed data to be embedded directly into Revit elements, enhancing model intelligence and cross-team coordination. (And let's not forget about how: 'improved model analytics and data  interoperability help maintain model integrity and documentation consistency').

 (Edit: There's nothing to indicate this anywhere, but 'Forma' is apparently just a new name for the Auto desk Construction Cloud ... So.... Who cares?)  

I mean Jesus Fucking Christ, people - bring it down a notch.

How the fuck any of this self-fellating nonsense translates into anything that is going to make the Revit experience less of an futile exercise in time-wasting, while providing nothing of substance is so far beyond me that they might as well be discussing the benefits of microwaving my balls.

#4 is literally the Autodesk Assistant. 

Just... Fuck you. The level of effort at this point is so small, it is undetectable by the most sensitive equipment in existence.

#5 Automation and Computational Workflows.

Finally!!! They've gotten around to the platform modernizing automation, computational design, and scripting capabilities!!!

Oh, wait, that's just more meaningless bullshit and jargon - made worse by the claim that it: 'supports more efficient workflows, structural detailing, energy and HVAC analysis, and fabrication ready systems'.

Fear not, though -as we are now moving into the discipline-specific enhancements (#6) - where the real meat-and-potatoes will be. 

Just kidding! Architecture gets 'improved modeling precision and documentation tools', Structural gets 'enhanced detailing, analysis, and reinforcement workflows - but hold onto your nuts for the MEP portion... 

'Upgraded energy, HVAC, and fabrication-ready systems for better coordination'. 

That's it. (And yes, they did repeat several items  from #5 - fuck, if you remove all the repeated terms you could probably print this whole list on the back of a matchbook).

#7 'Connected BIM and Forma Integration' 

Revit 2027 acts as Autodesk's first official Forma Connected Client, enabling closer collaboration between planning stage tools and... you know what? Fuck it. I'm not typing the rest of that sentence (and yes - I manually type everything I post here - usually on a phone). 

It's just another ad for Forma, and a repeat of the same mantra. Goddammit , people. 

#8 'User Experience Improvements' 

-Faster Opening Times (I'll believe it when I see it)

-Lower Memory Demand (Which is probably good , since AI has been driving memory prices through the roof.... Oh wait) 

-More trustworthy graphics (I dare you to make those three words make sense)

Yep -that's it. They finish off by claiming that Revit 2027 represents a 'significant step forward in AI-driven design, performance, and cloud-connected BIM workflows, with BIM managers delivering projects faster and with higher accuracy'. 

And if you believe that shit, I've got prime real-estate between my balls and ass for you to lick. 

Fuck this shit.

Fuck Autodesk, Fuck Revit, Fuck whatever AI wrote this list for some illiterate fucking moron jerking themselves unconscious on a printout of the Revit logo.

Fuck every single person involved , fuck their mothers, fuck their children, fuck their aunts and uncles, fuck their inlaws, fuck their next-door neighbors. 

And if you don't like it... Fuck You (and then refer to the list above for additional instructions).

Literally, 

-Skullfuck

Next Time: Rev-ducation. 

 

 

 

 

 

Revit Rears It's Ugly Head

Greetings Fucktards!

I've been leaving this thing alone since I'm only ever tangentially involved with Revit these days.

The one project I had to deal with finally came to an end after a decade+ long (fairly profitable) journey for my firm. Amusingly there were apparently several other 'Revit Holdouts' before I got here, because I would regularly find where they had (most likely in a fit of rage) exported drawings for various systems into CAD (or developed them in CAD to begin with, since fuck Revit). 

I joined their illustrious ranks when a large number of as-built panel schedule updates came through - exporting panels to CAD and updating them manually rather than having to beat on Revit until they looked right (one self-imposed limitation of the project that I probably mentioned before was that it was done in Revit 2018, and nobody wanted to deal with the headaches that converting it to a new version had the potential to cause).

At some point the client may want the Revit model, but since they have a full set of .pdfs and .dwgs they will almost certainly never look at it - and even if they do, and have a problem with anything, then they can promptly fuck themselves directly in their own stupid fucking faces. 

Anyway, today some people came by my desk asking about drawing a building in Revit for a proposal so they can oooh/ahh a client with our ability to show them their (fucking barracks) building to them in 3D.

I expressed hesitancy, because while I could probably slap a few walls, a floor, etc. into it - I had a funny feeling that they would try to turn it into a 'can we make X look like Y' or some other type of bullshit (or expect it to be an architecturally sound model).

 'We thought you had Revit skills?!?' was their incredulous response . Yeah, fuckface - *electrical* Revit skills, because I'm a fucking *electrical designer*. It turns out the project manager (an architect by trade - at least when I used to work with him) hates our architect that is a certified Revit bitchboi and would probably ejaculate at the idea of getting to slap a model together.

They were going to check with another guy on our team , whose previous firm had choked down on the Revit dick - but who is kind of a dipshit, and is unlikely to have ever Revited up a building.

Fortunately , it doesn't sound like the Revit aspect is as important as having a 3D picture, so we might be able to get one of our guys who is proficient in Solidworks to shit one out.

It's funny how Revit keeps getting tossed around from time to time , but never by people who know what the fuck it entails, and never actually ends up going anywhere.

In all reality, I hope to never look at it again (never hearing about it again would be fine too).

As always... Fuck Revit, Fuck Autodesk, and just for good measure - fuck you.

Sincerely, 

-SF

Next time: Revit 2027 review whenever they shit out a list of 'new features' or 'improvements'? 😅
