The Future of AI in the Hospitality Industry: Acsiopolis Leading the Way
According to AI author, Mo Gawdat (former Chief Business Officer of Google), “We know that with enough computer power and intelligence, the most complex of all encryptions can be decoded.” In today’s rapidly evolving world, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in various industries has become essential for businesses to stay ahead of the curve. The hospitality industry, in particular, stands to benefit greatly from embracing AI technology. At Acsiopolis, our multi-use lifestyle development, we recognise the transformative potential of AI and are proud to be at the forefront of this revolution.
As part of our early adoption to AI, a key advancement is the creation of position within our organisation for prompt engineers. This role requires an individual with a strong background in mathematics and analytics, as well as proficiency in language. Our prompt engineers will compile prompts that enable AI algorithms to provide reports with accurate and tailored information based on specific instructions. The data gathered from these reports will be used to improve on our offering and service delivery resulting in a better experience for all our guests. Building upon our existing expertise in finance and IT, which includes an actuary in our finance department and a dedicated in-house IT team, this new position will further enhance our ability to leverage AI technology effectively.
The impact of AI on sales and marketing within the hospitality industry cannot be understated. With AI’s analytic capabilities, we can monitor website traffic and leads with precision, aligning our strategies with specific brand objectives. Marketing departments will increasingly rely on big data trends and analysis, superseding the traditional reliance on emotional quotient. As a result, online algorithms will play a crucial role in driving traffic, leads, and ultimately sales conversions. However, it is important to note that face-to-face relationships remain paramount in certain customer segments and cannot be replaced, human interaction remains core to the hospitality sector. Our sales teams will be responsible for nurturing these relationships, ensuring a personalised experience that caters to their unique needs.
Likewise, website design is set to undergo a transformation, as AI enables us to craft cost-effective, direct channels for bookings. The dominance of online travel agents (OTA’s) will be challenged as direct bookings through AI-driven websites become the preferred method. The excessive commissions charged by OTA’s will face scrutiny, prompting them to reinvent their business models as comparative aggregators rather than booking channels. This shift empowers customers with more choices and competitive prices while reducing dependency on intermediary platforms.
When it comes to the finance department, organisations that integrate their property management systems (PMS) with accounting software will reap significant benefits from AI adoption. Basic accounting tasks can be performed by AI algorithms, reducing human error in data capturing. This allows finance departments to become experts in big data analytics, providing decision-makers with vital information that drives AI algorithms. By embracing this integration, businesses can avoid the need for additional physical resources dedicated to data capturing. At Acsiopolis, we have already streamlined our finance function through integrated systems, enabling us to focus on data accuracy and importance, while leveraging AI tools to enhance efficiency.
Ultimately, the success of AI in the hospitality industry hinges on the ability to overlay existing generative artificial intelligence models with unique data and insights. Prompt engineers play a critical role in directing learning algorithms, ensuring more accurate decisions to cater to the ever-evolving customer and guest base. Today’s customers are more astute than ever, demanding unique value products and services from hospitality brands. AI enables us to meet these demands by delivering personalised experiences and anticipating their needs which ultimately will result in exceeding expectations and entrenching brand loyalty. By harnessing the power of AI, hospitality establishments can unlock new levels of efficiency, innovation, and customer-centricity, ultimately redefining the industry standards.
As Acsiopolis continues to lead the way in embracing AI within the hospitality industry, we recognise the immense opportunities it presents. By leveraging AI’s capabilities, we can enhance our sales and marketing strategies, redesign websites for direct bookings, streamline our finance function, and most importantly, deliver consistently elevated customer experiences. Our commitment to innovation, coupled with the expertise of our prompt engineers, positions us at the forefront of this transformative journey. Acsiopolis is poised to set new standards in the hospitality industry, proving that AI and human ingenuity can work hand in hand to create a future of unrivalled excellence.

Jean-Michel Jarre is world’s first passenger to take off in KleinVision’s flying AirCar
PIESTANY, Slovakia, April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Godfather of electronic music and innovator Jean-Michel Jarre becomes world’s first passenger to take off in KleinVision’s flying AirCar in preparation for Starmus Opening Concert also Featuring Sir Brian May of Queen.
KleinVision’s AirCar took to the skies with electronic music pioneer, Jean-Michel Jarre as its first passenger this month, signaling a new era of transportation innovation. AirCar, which received the Certificate of Airworthiness in January 2022, has already logged an impressive 130 flight hours and over 520 takeoffs.
“It is like being in a Jules Verne book, but for real! One second you speak to the driver, and next, you are up there in the air – an amazing experience!” said Jean-Michel Jarre after completing two flights in the AirCar at Piestany international airport.
The artist’s excitement was palpable as he marveled at the futuristic experience, perfectly reflecting the theme of his upcoming Starmus opening concert, ‘The Bridge from the Future’, powered by ESET, global digital security leader.
“AirCar addition to Starmus is a fantastic complement to our festival experience,” said Garik Israelian, PhD, astrophysicist at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands and co-founder of Starmus, alongside Sir Brian May. “It mirrors the exhilarating journey we embark on, starting with Jean-Michel and Brian’s monumental concert that propels us to new heights, soaring alongside artists and inspiring thinkers like Jane Goodall, and coming back to Earth with the wisdom of astronaut Chris Hadfield once the festival concludes.”
“AirCar will not only be part of the Starmus opening concert, it will also be showcased at Starmus Camp, which, together with the Stephen Hawking Medal Ceremony and nine Nobelists giving lectures, will turn Bratislava into the world capital of science.”
Film director Todd Douglas Miller, Emmy Award-winning filmmaker of Apollo 11, captured the historic moment as he filmed the AirCar soaring at 2500 feet. “It looks impossible. It looks like it’s doing something it should not be doing!” Miller remarked, highlighting the groundbreaking nature of AirCar.
Professor Stefan Klein, inventor and pilot, expressed his pride as Jean-Michel became the inaugural passenger on the groundbreaking aircraft. “From dreams to reality, we have taken flight together with Jean-Michel, opening a new era of transportation with a touch of magic,” said Klein, moments before completing another successful intercity flight from Piestany to Nitra.
Anton Zajac, co-founder of KleinVision and ESET, lauded the advancement the AirCar represents in blurring the lines between roads and skies. “We are bridging the gap between the road and the sky, giving cars the freedom they symbolized 50 years ago,” Zajac remarked.
The flights took place in Piestany, Slovakia, and marked a momentous step towards a future where terrestrial and aerial travel seamlessly converge.
