But as apartment owners face issues with high rent delinquencies, they need someone to do it. So some of the nation’s largest landlords have decided to turn to artificial intelligence

In more than 1 million apartments across the U.S., building managers are using EliseAI’s artificial intelligence chatbot to push delinquent tenants to pay their rent — and in some cases to draft eviction notices.
