AI Is Coming for Business Travel
(SOURCE: HOSPITALITY INVESTOR, GBTA FEATURED)

ChatGPT may have got the world talking following its launch in November 2022, but concerns are growing that the business travel sector is failing to keep up with the conversation about AI. The sector has been considered as a far more natural fit for AI adoption compared to leisure travel, as the business traveller is forced to travel for duty as opposed to his or her own personal desires and tastes.

That means an AI which knows the time, date and location of the event the business traveller must attend can easily create an itinerary that will serve all requirements.
