“What is important is to make relevant recommendations based on the customers’ history that is stored and interpreted by the software. The self-learning engine takes into consideration the guest profile, nationality, gender, age, if they travel with extended family, friends, where they are sailing; it looks at many data points before making recommendations.”
For the supply chain, the AI engine can find correlations between cruise lengths, weather, deployment and special occasions, according to Lindthaler.
“Our current system can handle all of this,” he said, “but requires more data maintenance and also experienced provision masters. With the growth of the industry, there is a shortage of experienced crew, however, and this is where the technology can help. Sailing seven days out of Miami, it is not very difficult, but for global deployment, accurate forecasting becomes more of a challenge.”
This article pretty much just explains the new development done in Brickell, which we all know BCC (Brickell City Center). But, I wanted to share this article because many people have not noticed the ceiling's design. Or many have noticed it, but just think it's "artsy". Well, in reality it was created to create more air flow in the building to save up on having ac or fans. Since it's an open mall, they had to develop a design that would eliminate the hot sun, collect the rain, channel the wind and anchored to the earth. It captures sea breezes to regulate air flow and temperature, collects rainwater for reuse, and allows visitors to enjoy natural light in an open air environment. composed of steel, fabric and a continuous glass surface, the 'climate ribbon' is the project's flagship sustainability feature, demonstrating an awareness of its environmental responsibilities. This is a great example of sustainable design.
