Today we started asking ChatGPT 50 questions about finding a real estate agent in New York — one for each neighborhood, property type and firm we track. It gave us 250 names in total, belonging to 177 different agents and teams.
22 people came up more than once. Ryan Serhant (6 lists), Dolly Lenz (5 lists), Noble Black (4 lists), Eugene Litvak (The Litvak Team) (3 lists), Joseph Ranola (3 lists), Ria Browne (3 lists). Being named for one question could be chance. Being named for several means ChatGPT reaches for that person again and again.
On 1 question, every single person it named worked at the same firm: Brooklyn Heights — all 5 from Compass.
