In this video, we use ChatGPT to evaluate and rank potential commercial land uses for a subject site, then integrate those findings directly into an ongoing Site Investigation Report (SIR).

Watch as we prompt AI to generate a ranked list of viable uses based on zoning (C-1 / C-2) and Future Land Use designations (RES-6). We explore ideas ranging from medical/dental offices to retail services, review the criteria behind each ranking, and show how to prompt ChatGPT to preserve previous research while compiling new tables, decision gates, and due diligence tasks into the master Word document.
