Will AI Change How We Market In Real Estate?

Does anyone else feel like AI's moment has finally arrived? Will artificial intelligence finally become a valuable tool in marketing and in our lives?

With all of the hype around ChatCPT, it certainly seems that way. 

As I sit down to write this post, I am reminded of Morpheus in the Matrix when he said ...
