As implementation of ChatGPT and generative artificial intelligence more broadly ramps up, so too does concern about privacy and trust and calls for regulation.

In travel specifically, data protection is a critical issue for applications of this technology since frictionless, personalized shopping and booking will require AI to access travelers' preferences, payment sources and more.

As travel companies continue rapid testing and integration of generative AI, now is the time for industry stakeholders to give thoughtful consideration to how human-to-AI communication can be built with minimal risks.

Host Mitra Sorrells, editor in chief, PhocusWire explore these issues and potential solutions with the following speakers:
Patrick Surry, chief data scientist at Hopper
Trevor Butterworth, co-founder and vice president of governance at Indicio
Sanjay Mohan, Group CTO at MakeMyTrip

Seamless but secure: ChatGPT and data protection in travel

It’s been nearly one year since OpenAI released ChatGPT – sending the travel industry scrambling to figure out how to implement the large language model-based chatbot. Since then, brands across every sector of travel and around the globe have been launching plugins, integrating generative AI into their apps and websites and using the technology internally to add efficiency.

Monday, November 6, OpenAI will host its first developer conference – dubbed OpenAI DevDay – to preview new tools and discuss new implementations. Already the company has released GPT-4, DALL-E and Whisper. So what’s next – not just for ChatGPT but also other large language models such as Anthropic, which just received a $2 billion investment from Google – and how they are used across travel?

On this episode, PhocusWire editor in chief discusses these topics with industry experts:
Toby Korner, Priceline senior vice president of digital marketing (was unable to join due to technical issues)
Pablo Laucirica, Microsoft regional vice president of advertising
Rahul Todkar, Tripadvisor vice president and head of data

While the worst-case scenario from the Silicon Valley Bank collapse has been averted thanks to the U.S. government’s decision to backstop depositors’ funds – and HSBC’s acquisition of the bank’s U.K. arm for a symbolic £1 – nerves are still rattled. Questions remain about what this stunning chain of events could mean for travel startups, whether it will chill investment activity. We dig into some of the issues in PhocusWire’s LinkedIn Audio event.

PhocusWire editor in chief Mitra Sorrels spoke to this esteemed panel:
Ariel Cohen, Co-Founder & CEO, Navan
Jack Dow, Founder & CEO, Grapevine

For many years, artificial intelligence has been a powerful tool for stakeholders across the travel industry – from suppliers to intermediaries to those providing supporting technology for tasks such as revenue management.

But November 30, 2022 was a tipping point. That is the day OpenAI launched ChatGPT, a chatbot that has incredibly human-like communication skills – and that has, seemingly overnight, captured attention for its ability to do everything from compose music and essays to write computer programs and detailed travel itineraries. 

What will ChatGPT - and other generative AI solutions such as Google’s recently announced Bard – mean for the travel industry? Could it transform the way consumers search and book travel?

PhocusWire’s debut LinkedIn Audio Event discussed this topic with three industry leaders:  
Paul English, KAYAK co-founder and serial entrepreneur 
Rajesh Naidu, Expedia Group’s senior vice president and chief architect 
Shane O’Flaherty, Microsoft’s global director of travel, transportation and hospitality
