Tripadvisor

📖 Tripadvisor, the world's largest travel review site, announces a new AI-powered feature, "Review Summaries," that distills over 1 billion reviews into concise summaries and quotes for hotel properties. The summaries, created using state-of-the-art generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs), aim to simplify search and maintain the integrity of the original user content. The feature leverages machine learning techniques such as RAG, BART, and DistilBERT, fine-tuned with extensive user research and feedback. Currently focused on hotels, Tripadvisor plans to expand to restaurants and attractions, prioritizing user trust and transparency.
