E90: My Hot Take on AI Privacy
In this episode of Mortgage Tech Talks, I dive into one of the most common questions I hear at conferences and panels: “Should mortgage brokers be worried about client privacy when using AI tools like ChatGPT?”
Instead of giving the usual surface-level answer, I take a contrarian approach and unpack why many of the fears around AI privacy are more about perception than legal reality. From comparing ChatGPT to Gmail, to breaking down Canadian compliance laws, this 15-minute rant is all about challenging the myths that keep brokers from adopting powerful technology.
Whether you agree or disagree, this episode will push your thinking and hopefully unlock new opportunities for how you use tech in your business.
