💡 AI is revolutionizing hospitality, but not how you think.

The big hotel chains? They’re struggling to adapt. The real advantage? It belongs to small, independent operators who know how to leverage AI the right way.

On this episode of The Hotel Investor Playbook, we sit down with Ari Smith, an AI scientist and futurist, to unpack:

✔️ How AI is making boutique hotels more profitable than ever

✔️ Where to automate—and where human service is irreplaceable

✔️ Why ultra-luxury stays will always demand a human touch

✔️ The AI-driven hospitality tech that’s leveling the playing field

✔️ How micro-communities could be the future of resilient real estate investing

Ari is building a 550-acre micro-community in Vermont, integrating AI with nature-driven experiences—AND developing next-gen tech that could change hotel operations forever. If you’re in hospitality or real estate investing, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.
