John, thanks for your comment. I’ve been in real estate for about 10 years, studying how people actually make decisions and helping them choose the right property. Recently, launched a platform that uses deep analysis to evaluate listings before you see them, showing only the ones that genuinely match your needs and lifestyle. We’re constantly running tests and experiments.


What I doubt is that AI can provide a useful enough insight into my needs and desires so as to be able find appropriate real estate for me. It's not about evaluating listings, it's about the ability to evaluate me well enough. Even if it theoretically could (which I doubt), how could it possibly learn enough about me to actually do that? It would have to know me as well as my close friends do.

So, I guess me answer is no, I don't think AI can be very useful for this sort of thing.


Thanks, John. I really appreciate your thoughtful reply and totally understand your point. The idea isn’t to replace human understanding, but to let you share the key things that matter to you, so the system can surface only the most relevant options. The more facts and context it has, the more accurate the results become.
