Too much AI? 

No seminars at Realcomm avoided the mention of Artificial Intelligence. Realcomm is the thinking person's conference about technology in real estate and as a result attracts the Chief Technology Officers and Global Heads of Asset Management from most of the big REITs. This June, it was held in the hot, humid and thundery city of Tampa, Florida and Lorna and Andrew were there to find out if AI is here to stay.

 We asked AI office receptionists for directions in many languages, we saw AI analysis of leases, ESG reporting and building sensors, and we got to talk to investors about whether they are buying AI for their own portfolios. We also saw and heard the scariest AI-powered internet scams and saw deep-fake videos of people we know asking for money to be sent urgently.

This event was full of surprises and useful tips and so we are currently condensing this into a short presentation for our clients. We have a few slots left this month and next if you and your management team would like a 60-minute presentation/discussion on what you could be implementing in your business in the next 2 years. Please get in touch with Andrew Waller for more details.
