Why Aimbridge's CIO Says AI Doesn't Work Without Humans

from No Vacancy Live! · host No Vacancy News

Keryn McNamara, CIO at Aimbridge, told me AI fails the moment it replaces a human instead of freeing one up. 💰 She's bringing a labor productivity and forecasting tool to market within weeks, built on Aimbridge's scale and data. 🚪 Her go-to comparison: elevator operators disappeared, but new jobs replaced them. She thinks the same thing happens with AI in hotels. 🚩 Her test for separating real AI from marketing AI: ask partners who they're integrated with and who they actually know. ⚡ Her prediction for agentic AI hitting property management systems and point-of-sale: six months, not a year.
