Chatting to Alex Bainbridge, the mad scientist of Tours & Activities

I always love catching up with Alex Bainbridge. Not only is he the number one member of the Everything AI in Slack community but the way he looks at and conceives (rather than perceives - this man is a doer, not a watcher) the world is just so different to most of us.I therefore jumped at the chance to co-host a session at the upcoming Arival event in Washington DC with Alex where anyone who has their own ideas, thoughts or challenges with AI can drop by and we can chat those through as a group.I caught up with Alex in advance here on the pod to help set the scene and to give a glimpse to those who can’t make it. (Discounted ticket below if you can).We also have special offer for those looking to attend the ⁠⁠Arival AI Forum for Destination Experiences⁠⁠ in early October, happening in Washington DC. You'll hear about it early in this episode.Use Promo Code: FOATOCRDC to get a special discount just for our listeners.I'll be attending so join me this 29–30 September in Washington, DC for the Arival AI Forum for Destination Experiences — a hands-on, intensive learning forum built for destination experiences leaders serious about applying AI in meaningful, measurable ways.Special Offer for AI Forum at Arival 2025
