AI-Talks on Alexis’ Research

Cruise Tourism Research AI-Generated Podcasts

Having dedicated over 20 years of my professional and academic career researching on tourism and cruises, I have documented my findings and discussed their implications from a variety of perspectives. Ultimately, my aim has been to educate and inform the public on this domain of business and leisure activity , which impacts many lives and communities.

To have an impact, tourism and cruise research needs to be accessible and attractive to a wider audience! Yet, my occasional quote in the press or brief radio soundbite only scratches the surface!

The polarised (in my opinion) public debate does not capture the complexity and interdependencies of the cruise tourism system, which extend way beyond the actual vessel; nor does support the evolution of pragmatic solutions. Besides my scientific publication activity over the last decades, I have also often spoke about publicly in the press and in various conferences. At the end of the day, if (my) research is to have an impact it needs to be accessible and attractive to a wider audience, while at the same time go into more depth than the occasional quote or brief soundbite in the press or radio.

AI-tools now offer also the possibility to effortlessly compile and summarise this accumulated knowledge into very compact, easily digestible and more entertaining formats (at least compared to reading scientific papers). Using the functionality of Google’s Large Language Model, I have ‘trained’ a (mini-Papathanassis) model by uploading my presentations and my research work. These sources are the basis of the short AI-generated podcasts available here, summarising key aspects and covering some of the central questions on cruise tourism.

Instead of reading my research and attending my speeches, you can simply hear it as an AI-generated podcast!
