Artificial intelligence has become an integral part of tourism. But before tools are used indiscriminately, it must be clear: What role does AI play in tourism? What role in my organisation? What is the aim of its use? What advantages does AI offer when it comes to promoting sustainable measures? And what are the key success factors for successful implementation? In our interactive workshop, you will develop practical answers to these questions, always taking into account the areas of application of tourism sustainability.
