Artificial Intelligence (AI)
AI × CRE – AI × CRE is a monthly community of practice for commercial real estate professionals navigating AI adoption. They meet to share what’s working, learn from each other’s experience, and ask the harder questions about where this technology is taking our industry and our profession. It started almost by accident. An unplanned meeting grew out of a CREWBiz post for women who wanted to learn — quickly — how to actually use AI in their work. That first conversation took on a life of its own.
