The latest episode of Face Value, hosted by Tonia Vailas, MAI, AI-GRS, and Warren Boizot, SRA, AI-RRS, dives into the fast-evolving world of artificial intelligence and what it means for appraisers.

Joined by AI experts Mark Linne, MAI, SRA, and Maureen Mahoney, the Appraisal Institute’s Director of Education, the hosts explore how AI is transforming appraisal practice — from acting as a tireless research assistant to reshaping data analysis and decision-making.

But it’s not all smooth terrain. As Mahoney puts it, “We’re in the wild west of artificial intelligence.” The episode tackles the biggest questions appraisers are asking:

• Is AI a threat or an opportunity?

• How can appraisers use it safely and ethically?

• What does the future look like for the profession?

The episode also introduces “AI on AI”, a six-month interactive learning program launching October 21. This first-of-its-kind initiative provides a safe, hands-on environment for appraisers to explore, test, and integrate AI tools — while staying grounded in ethics and professionalism.

Listen now to learn how you can embrace innovation without losing what makes the appraisal profession uniquely human.
