Discuss the impact and applications of AI in real estate, with a focus on practical uses for agents.

Key Takeaways

• AI is rapidly evolving and can significantly boost efficiency in real estate operations (e.g. content creation, data analysis, customer service)
• While there are environmental concerns about AI's energy consumption, it's creating new job opportunities as industries adapt
• Agents should embrace AI tools to stay competitive, but always verify AI-generated information for accuracy

Topics

Current AI Applications in Real Estate
