  1. Was thinking of booking a cabin on #Airbnb, but one of the images looked a bit... off... Sure enough, it was AI generated. As were at least one of the other images, one of the bedrooms.

    Wth are people thinking when they do this? What are they trying to hide?

  6. Looking for tips on booking accomodation on journeys! I know #AirBnB is profitting from the economy of genocide in Palestine by renting out apartments on stolen land. The same goes for #bookingcom. I don't want to support that kind of business. What other options and alternatives do we have? Hit me with all you know.

  10. As Brian Chesky tells it, AI seems to be really kicking in at Airbnb. Excluding the LLMs and hyper-scalers, he argues that Airbnb went from being a middle-of-the-pack AI company to "a leader in AI." #travel #airbnb #ai

  11. CW: How Airbnb is killing Tekapo

    Pretty little Tekapo has 315 permanent households and 500 Airbnb listings. Tourism invading at this scale breaks up communities, inflates house prices so worker accommodation becomes non-existent, and you never get to know your neighbours because they're only in town for one or two days.

    Many of the rentals don't meet compliance so the Mackenzie District Council is cracking down. They've appointed someone to investigate short-term accommodation listings and have already identified 200 breaking the rules.

    It's not going to solve Tekapo's over-saturation of short term rentals, but it's a start.

    I wonder how much tax Airbnb pays from its substantial NZ operation?

  13. Landat i #Vimmerby, ätit kvällsmat på den lokala pizzerian och checkat in i vårt #AirBnB-hyrda garage-omvandlat-till-bostad. Första gången jag hyr något via AirBnB och efter att ha sett alla skräckvärdar på YT undrar jag var de dolda kamerorna är.

  14. The latest short doco from #FrankFilms is an insightful, and depressing, look at why the rebuild of Christchurch city, NZ, after the earthquakes didn’t lead to the planned resurgence of inner city residents and communities. Spoiler: all the new inner city dwellings were built at the arrival of AirBnB into the city, and developers and landlords instead have been making lots of money renting out the properties to short-stay visitors. At the same time, there has been inaction by NZ’s national government to give our cities legislative powers to regulate the hotel-like businesses that are diluting real neighbourhoods.

    There’s definitely a lot to think about here.

  16. Vidas encaixotadas: A distopia vira a esquina

    Série A Arquiteta retrata um futuro em que parar nas calçadas é proibido e até vagas de estacionamentos viram moradias. Suas provocações convidam a refletir sobre a gentrificação feroz em cidades de Norte a Sul do planeta e como opera o “patriarcado do tijolo”...

    . «Les mots “pouvant aller jusqu’à 2 500 euros sans être inférieur à 750 euros”[par nuitée] sont conformes à la Constitution»

    > message de service à toutes les collectivités françaises, vous allez pouvoir récupérer un petit pactole, pas de plafonnement pour les amendes pour défaut de perception de la taxe de séjour !

  18. EU vill ge städer större möjligheter att begränsa korttidsuthyrning via tjänster som Airbnb. Nya regler kan påverka både bostadsmarknaden och framtida semesterboenden.#airbnb #EU #Semester

  19. @tagesbedarf Ja, St. Pauli könnte mal was gegen das Umwandeln von Wohnraum in Air-bnb (und ähnliche Konstrukte) unternehmen. Aber die Erlebnisgastronomie liebt den Kurzabsteiger.

  28. Praha 1 žádá, aby novela zákona o cestovním ruchu, kterou připravuje ministerstvo pro místní rozvoj (MMR), umožnila obcím řešit dopady krátkodobého ubytování typu Airbnb. Stát musí dát obcím podle Prahy 1 konkrétní nástroje k tomu, aby mohly dohledat vlastníka, zjistit, zda a jak je daný prostor...

  31. Would we have the current #AI fiasco if we had actually struck down #uber and #airbnb in their infancies?

    It seems like they pioneered the modern tech asshole paradigm of "explicitly break any laws in the way, and ask forgiveness rather than permission once you get big enough that the state is afraid to step in with more than a wristslap."

    LLMs rightfully should be the same class of novelty as print-on-demand kiosks- a nifty tech demo that can't scale past toy uses due to IP reality.
