Agrippa CEO Blake Owens shared in a June interview how AI would help in real estate deals. Agrippa is an AI-powered, broker-free platform for real estate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-1\">\n<p>The pig\u2019s head arrived on July 29. Owens believes the sender might fear losing jobs to AI. The letter said AI wouldn\u2019t replace brokers. The sender accused him of not understanding real estate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-3\">\n<p>\u201cAI is not going to replace brokers. Clearly, you don\u2019t understand real estate was built by developer or investors,\u201d 8 News Now quoted the sender as saying in the letter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-4\">\n<p>Owens said he didn\u2019t feel truly threatened but took the message seriously. According to him, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.livemint.com\/ai\/ai-spending-is-propping-up-the-economy-right-it-s-complicated-11754636903799.html\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"AI\">AI<\/a> is meant to support people, not replace them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-5\">\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to punch down on this person; they may be in a tough spot in life. I do see this as an opportunity to show people you don\u2019t become a better person by making another man a lesser person,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-7\">\n<p>Owens believes in a quote by Winston Churchill that says change is necessary. Owens feels many are scared of how fast AI is growing. But, he believes those who learn and adapt will succeed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-8\">\n<p>\u201cA lot of people are afraid of change and what\u2019s coming with AI, because it really is a tsunami of change that people are trying to resist. But the more you embrace it, the better you\u2019ll do, the more skills that you\u2019ll accumulate more value you\u2019ll bring to the table,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-9\">\n<h2>AI in real estate<\/h2>\n<p>MGM Resorts, Nevada\u2019s biggest employer, has started using AI across many departments, including front desk work. In their latest report, they said 70 to 80 AI tools had been added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-11\">\n<p>Another hotel, Otonomous Hotel, opened on July 1 in Las Vegas. It uses AI services and recently hosted guests from El Salvador.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-12\">\n<p>According to Blake Owens, companies like Agrippa, TensorWave and Otonomous are leading AI change in the city. He believes this shift may upset some people, but it\u2019s needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-13\">\n<p>\u201cMay ruffle some feathers in the process, but in the long run, I think that it\u2019s the best thing to do,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"article-index-14\">\n<p>The <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.livemint.com\/companies\/news\/elon-musk-tesla-vehicles-set-on-fire-las-vegas-police-say-targetted-attack-terror-faces-heat-doge-donald-trump-us-news-11742436000606.html\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"Las Vegas Police\">Las Vegas Police<\/a> are now looking into the pig\u2019s head case.
