In this episode of Mortgage Tech Talks, we put AI to the test in a live phone call simulation. We set up an AI assistant to act as a mortgage broker’s team member, following up with a client, and then break down the results. How natural was the conversation? What can mortgage brokers actually use this technology for today? And what are the risks and future implications as AI-powered calls become more common? Tune in to hear the full call, my breakdown, and the opportunities—and challenges—AI phone calls present for the mortgage industry.
