Abstract The integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in software architecture marks a paradigm shift, significantly reshaping traditional design and development processes. This paper provides a systematic exploration of how generative AI techniques, including large language models (LLMs) and automated code generation tools, influence architectural decision-making, enhance software quality, and streamline development workflows. Through an analysis of contemporary generative AI applications and frameworks, we highlight their capabilities to automatically propose optimal architectural patterns, improve design consistency, and accelerate iterative prototyping. The study further evaluates critical challenges such as the accuracy of generated outputs, explainability, security implications, and ethical considerations. Empirical results from case studies demonstrate substantial productivity gains and reduced development cycles, validating the practical effectiveness of GenAI-driven software architectures. Finally, we discuss future directions and opportunities for further research in integrating advanced generative models into complex architectural scenarios.
