Is AI a threat — or the biggest opportunity in real estate?

In this episode of Stay Paid, we sit down with Drew Thompson, head of Real Academy at Real, to dive deep into how agents can practically use AI for content, coaching, rapport building, and sales.

Learn why follower counts don’t matter, why human connection will always win, and how to harness AI as your creative edge instead of fearing it.

🧠 What we cover:

✅ Two types of AI users: copywriters vs. strategic partners.

✅ How to create “AI advisors” modeled after mentors like Hormozi.

✅ Journaling, role-playing, and critical thinking with ChatGPT.

✅ Why courses and coaching aren’t dead—they just require trust.

✅ The dangers of hallucinations, fake testimonials, and over-AI’d posts.

✅ Practical uses: research prospects before meetings, build rapport fast.

✅ Why “human verified” content may be the next wave.

✅ AI’s real impact: automating 70+ agent tasks while humans keep the heart-to-heart.
