Artificial intelligence seems to be taking over pretty much every aspect of our daily lives, including the way we plan our travels. AI-powered travel planning experienced a huge rise in popularity this year, and it will be going stronger than ever in 2024.

Throughout 2023, we’ve seen several TikTok users go viral after sharing their AI-curated travel itineraries with the world. They turned to ChatGPT and Notion AI when planning their next adventure, and their AI-generated travel itineraries attracted millions of views.

As artificial intelligence experiences an even bigger surge in popularity, AI-powered planning is shaping up to be one of the biggest travel trends of 2024.

According to Euronews’ recent reports, 62% of millennials would appreciate insights, tips, or hints from an AI companion while planning their travels. Baby Boomers aren’t as open to trusting AI tech to plan their travels, and only 39% said they would use AI in travel planning.

Several travel-related platforms already embraced this craze and integrated AI tools into their websites. Booking.com introduced an AI Trip Planner earlier this year, powered by ChatGPT, Expedia launched its own AI chatbot, while Tripadvisor introduced an AI-powered itinerary generator, helping you plan your next adventure based on your destination, dates, and interests.

The use of artificial intelligence in the music industry raised some eyebrows in recent months, but it seems YouTube is getting ready to hop on the AI train. They’re working with major studios to develop an AI tool that can mimic the voices of our favorite musicians.

According to Billboard’s new report, YouTube wants to launch a new artificial intelligence tool that will allow creators to make videos using the voices of popular recording artists. They were planning to debut it during the Made on YouTube event in September, but the plan never came to fruition because they’re still to ink deals with record labels.

Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, and Warner Music Group are negotiating licensing deals with YouTube, but nothing has been decided just yet. They’d have to sign legal agreements with YouTube which would cover voice rights for the beta version of this AI tool, while a separate agreement would be required for its wide launch.

None of this would be possible without the artists giving permission for their voices to be used, and some of them are pretty resistant to the idea. Several high-profile artists openly spoke against AI in recent months, including Drake, Sting, and Ice Cube.

The perfume industry may be on the verge of a big shift. Incorporating artificial intelligence into the process of making fragrance may transform the whole industry, but what can we realistically expect to happen?

While perfumes often smell like the most beautiful flowers or ripe fruits, the ingredients used for them are almost always synthetical. The smell of lavender, jasmine, or raspberries in your favorite perfume may have been perfected, but it wasn’t made using the real stuff. The lab-made replicas are doing a much better job, and now they may get help from AI.

But customers increasingly want natural ingredients, and there’s a way to give them that. As Aerin Lauder, founder of Aerin, told Allure, “It’s tricky to formulate perfumes with natural ingredients. They don’t last as long on the skin, and if you’re paying for a fragrance you want it to last.” Thanks to artificial intelligence, perfumers can measure how intensely your scent will smell over time, which helps them determine the concentration of individual ingredients. This allows for the creation of new, interesting combinations that weren’t possible before.

Many influencers lead picture-perfect lives that are out of reach for most of us, but what if we told you some of them aren’t even real people? CGI-created virtual influencers are changing social media marketing as we know it, and here are a few you should know about.

Miquela

Miquela was created by LA-based firm Brud in 2016 and went on to become the most popular CGI influencer on Instagram. She’s constantly promoting luxury brands on her page, and she even recorded several songs and took part in high-profile fashion campaigns.

Blawko     

Blawko is another virtual star created by Brud, best known for his streetwear style, face tattoos, and a mask that he never takes off.

Bermuda

Bermuda is best known for her love of music and all things pink. When Brud first launched this CGI character, they manufactured a dramatic feud between Miquela and her, but they seem to be BFFs these days.

Shudu

Shudu is one of the virtual models created by The Diigitals Agency, and she’s been described as the world’s first digital supermodel. She even modeled for Fenty Beauty and Balmain, and often shares photos with other digital models on her Instagram page.

If you visit Thispersondoesnotexist website, you’ll find yourself face-to-face with… well, a person who doesn’t exist. Every time you hit refresh, the software will generate a new fake face using artificial intelligence.

“Each time you refresh the site, the network will generate a new facial image from scratch,” writes Philip Wang, a software engineer at Uber, in a Facebook post. “Most people do not understand how good AIs will be at synthesizing images in the future.”

The algorithm behind the website uses a huge dataset of real images to generate faces that don’t actually exist. Awesome or terrifying? You decide.
