AI

Someone once said lasers were a solution looking for a problem.

I’m feeling the same way about AI right now. That and the security risks it brings. e.g. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/29/claude-ai-deletes-firm-database

As you know Rentman uses AI to check grammar, enhance photos, write property descriptions and the like.

The important thing right now is not to give AI free access to your data so we’re working on feeding filtered read-only views of the data to the AI built into Excel and PowerBI.

We’re also working on Rentman.online feeding JSON to a local (android/iPad) AI agent – again fresh data but “offline” in that AI is not connected to your live database.

As always if you have immediate or specific requirements let me know and we’ll see what we can do.

There are a lot of videos out there discussing AI and this one in particular caught my attention. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SXCJhqXubU
