"If I have to call a restaurant to make a reservation, I'm going to a different place. If you don't have OpenTable or Resy, I'm out." "I think we're going to get to the point where people demand an AI because they're not going to want to wait on hold. We're not 100% there and we're just paying down the debt of bad tech that we've had for the past 10 years. But I'm hopeful that in three or four years, this will be the norm." "The problem was we had 10 to 15 years of bots that were really bad. If you were talking to an AI more than three years ago, it sucked. Now you can talk to an AI, and it's conversational, it's multilingual, it has access to systems. The AI agents of today are like the horse and carriage versus a flying car."
