In our latest podcast episode from 'The Summit' in Las Vegas, we explore an intriguing question, with Stuart Greif, my good friend and Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer:  What if luxury hospitality could harness AI to deepen, rather than diminish, human connections?

Stuart shares his valuable insights on leveraging AI to streamline administrative tasks, allowing staff to focus on cultivating meaningful interactions with guests. Despite technological advancements, he emphasizes that the heart of luxury hospitality remains genuine human connection.

He also discusses the panel of tech luminaries he brought together that included Gilad Berenstein, Leslie Simmons from Amazon, Vaughn Davis from Dream Hollywood and Shane O'Flaherty from Microsoft. They discussed AI's transformative role in travel and hospitality, from personal recommendation engines to innovative tech integrations in hotel management. 

The episode also highlights the contributions of women leaders in luxury hospitality, with special recognition of Amanda Frasier’s efforts in elevating global service excellence standards. 

This episode is a must-listen for hospitality professionals looking to stay ahead in the evolving landscape of luxury travel. Discover how AI can enhance, rather than replace, the irreplaceable human touch in hospitality. Listen now to learn more about these innovations and insights!

Thanks again to Stuart & Amanda for inviting Travel Trends to 'The Summit' and for making time for this important conversation that really sets the stage for all the interviews we're publishing.  Our final conversation will be with Amanda Frasier when we review all the major developments from the event and look to next year.
