Episode Transcript:

Today, we're diving into the exciting world of artificial intelligence and its impact on the commercial real estate industry.

Now, there's been quite a buzz around large language model AI, or LLM, and today, we have some big news to share. JLL, one of the major players in commercial real estate brokerage, has unveiled its own groundbreaking AI product - "JLL GPT."

Just like its famous counterpart, ChatGPT, JLL GPT leverages data from the company's exclusive databases, offering tailored responses to queries posed by its users. But this goes way beyond a simple chatbot; it's a game-changer in the world of CRE.

The Chief Technology Officer of JLL, Yao Morin, is brimming with excitement about this new venture. This technology has the potential to revolutionize the way we work in commercial real estate.

Imagine this - instead of brokers going back and forth with analysts for rental rate data, JLL GPT swoops in to provide the answer in a fraction of the time. It's all about efficiency and streamlining the process.

Now, JLL is the first to launch such a tool in the CRE industry, but it won't be the last. According to Spencer Burton, president of Stablewood Properties, AI is becoming a key focus for forward-thinking real estate firms. They're all racing to embrace this technology and unlock its full potential.

However, as with any new technology, there are challenges to overcome. AI models can sometimes produce inaccurate results, what Burton humorously calls "hallucinations." But that's where the real estate firms' determination comes in. Investing resources into training the model will be crucial for success.

So, is this AI revolution here to replace human jobs? Not according to Morin. She sees it as a tool that enhances and empowers the workforce. Analysts can now focus on high-value analysis, leaving mundane tasks to JLL GPT.

Now, JLL didn't disclose the full details of their investment in this project, but they've demonstrated their commitment to AI and proptech in the past. Their venture capital arm has already invested heavily in various proptech startups, further emphasizing their belief in the transformational power of AI.

And there you have it - JLL GPT, a groundbreaking tool that's set to revolutionize how we work in commercial real estate. As AI continues to evolve, we can expect more innovative applications that elevate the industry to new heights.
