India is a growing market for air travel, both domestically and internationally. This seminar presented research based on a longitudinal study that examines air travel patterns from 2005 to 2017 between India and North America using airline schedules and PaxIS data. The results indicate that India relied upon indirect connections to facilitate travel to North America, but the hubs used has changed over the years. Air travel was almost totally undertaken over the North Atlantic, but airplane technology and more recently geopolitical issues have seen the development of flights over the Pacific Ocean. The Indian market continues to grow leading to a concurrent growth in international travel.
In this talk, Gurtner and Delgado raised awareness of the potential massive paradigm shifts that may come with AI. They summarised the latest development in AI and discussed how they will likely shape the future. They presented some conundrums on AI use, and then focused on how AI can be used right now for research. They concluded by considering the implications of AI for Universities, researchers and students.
