I was being bombarded with texts and emails about my recent post on the Zillow ChatGPT app and whether Zillow was thumbing its nose at IDX rules. I didn’t have time to sit down and write my thoughts about it. Lucky for all of us, The Notorious ROB did an excellent job of explaining why he thinks there’s nothing to see here. Zillow also issued a response.
I’m never shy about calling out Zillow or anyone else when I think they’ve crossed the line, but in this case I agree with Rob — launching an app inside ChatGPT doesn’t violate IDX rules.
But I will say, I’m 100% sure that with things moving so fast we will be faced with data issues that may not be so straightforward.
