I have just watched a Ytube with a interview by a female CNBC hosts asking Brian Chesky about travel slowdown and the future of the travel outlook. He states there is still demand for travel even in this economic downturn and considers there will be growth in Airbnb.
This will be through perfection of core service, customer service, providing better value making, hosting mainstream.
Brian talk about high stream acquisitions as in; high end Hotels tonight and luxury treats.
The CNBChosts is Airbnbgoing to have a loyalty programme? Brian says he is looking into this beyond a points system. Lastly, he was asked about AI with Airbnb he said that he could see a lot to be changing with this technology.
When I typed in AI and Airbnb. Google tells me Airbnb is using AI for their algorithms with similar search places that you click on. Places you view, hosts preferences and guest preferences, calculating prices, host response time, It is also used to evaluate if guests are trustworthy. In thatAI algorithm function is similar to background check of guests to determin their personality traits such as "conscientiousness and openness " along with "narcissism, Machiavellianism (new word for me - person who is sly, deceptive, distrusting and manipulative ) or physchopathy"
Maybe Airbnb are looking after us as in the hosts and who wants to stay in our accommodation.
The question I ask myself is what does Airbnb have on me and other hosts?
