Tripping on AI

While a new app powered by artificial intelligence makes travel planning easier with instant itineraries, we wish it could account for our budgets

The traveller sees what he sees. The tourist sees what he has come to see.” The words of English writer Gilbert Keith Chesterton broadly help one define their process of travel planning. But combined with a few hot words like 'wanderlust', the two terms also become hot selling points in copywriting for hipster travel companies. That’s why when we spot Welcome, an app powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) that generates instant itineraries for over 250 cities, we’re a bit suspicious because it’s branded as a 'smart travel companion'. Then again, planning a trip isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so we might as well give this a spin.
J-AI ho!
