AI-Powered A/B Testing: Optimize Faster, But Ask Better Questions

A/B testing used to mean picking two options, splitting your audience, and waiting weeks for results. AI just changed the rules — now you can test a thousand variants simultaneously while you sleep. But faster testing comes with a hidden danger: AI will optimize for the wrong thing if you let it.In this episode, Jill breaks down how multi-armed bandits, AI-generated variants, and real-time significance testing are transforming how travel brands — from cruise lines to theme parks — design better experiences. Plus, she shares a three-question framework you can paste directly into AI before any test to make sure you're optimizing for what actually matters.Because AI runs the test. You ask the question.
