When ODYSY Media asked ChatGPT to explain the shopping center business to us, part of the response included the investment in creating vibrant, profitable destinations that attract shoppers, generate income and maintain a balance among tenant mix, amenities and overall experience to ensure the long-term viability of a center.
Let’s make the investment in learning more about how artificial intelligence tools can assist with those goals and more! We’ve all seen the articles on AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney and Claude 3 Opus and how they are changing the industry like this JLL report on AI’s implications for real estate or this CBRE podcast’s episode on deploying AI in commercial real estate.
Here are a few takeaways ODYSY Media had from a recent international communications conference, the NAB Show with 61,000 registered attendees, where AI was the hot topic.

AI systems require large amounts of high-quality data to function effectively. It matters, and there are differences in the free and paid versions.

Collaboration across departments and a commitment to ongoing learning is key.
