About this episode
What if AI wasn’t something we had to adapt to—but something we could take back control of?
In this episode, Anne-Sofie Engelschiøn challenges the dominant narrative of AI as a centralized, efficiency-driven force. Instead, she explores a different future—one where individuals and communities own their tools, shape their data, and co-create meaningful experiences.
From decentralized AI infrastructures to a shift from personalization to true co-creation, this conversation invites us to rethink who controls technology—and for whose benefit. At its core, it’s a powerful reminder that the future of AI is not predetermined—it’s something we can actively design.
In Season 4, we turn our attention to the future of tourism and hospitality. Through conversations with forward‑thinking leaders, researchers, and innovators, the season explores how the industry can evolve to stay resilient, relevant, and meaningful in the face of profound economic, technological, and societal change.
In the Resilient Tourism Podcast Series, we talk with international travel and tourism experts about digital transformation and datafication. Our goal is to inspire you to take action and be part of the movement! 🎯
