Integration of GPT-4 (ChatGPT) via OpenAI API into an enterprise travel application for automated curated content generation.

myLike is a platform that enables travel, tourism, mobility and hospitality companies to create and share personalized digital travel guides with their customers in a white-label format.

The goal of this project was to streamline the process of creating personalized recommendations for places and experiences through the use of artificial intelligence (AI) by integrating features from GPT-4 (ChatGPT) into the application via the OpenAI API.

For this purpose, a “typing assistant” based on GPT-4 (ChatGPT) was developed that inspires and actively supports companies in the creation of personalized content. This AI-based assistant has been fully integrated into the myLike personalized content creation process, shortening it by providing customized and stimulating text suggestions that can be further personalized.

Challenge

The myLike business web application already provided a solid platform to offer guests personalized recommendations for attractions, restaurants and activities near their current location. However, it has been difficult for companies to find the time and resources to create content tailored to individual circumstances – despite significant automation tools to help users create the tips.

The challenge was to create an even more efficient way to identify new and interesting local services and activities, and make them available to guests and customers in a timely and customized manner in an engaging From. At the same time, it was necessary to ensure that the content generated was truthful, up-to-date, and not “hallucinated.”

Ensure topicality of the content
Individual and personal adaptation of the recommendations
Ensuring the accuracy of the generated content

Efficient identification of new, interesting offers as selectable options
Fast integration of new offers into the geolocalized database for the guests and customers
Avoidance of “hallucinated” or outdated information

Realization

To address the challenges and add content generation capabilities to the myLike business web application, the OpenAI API and GPT-4 were integrated.

To ensure the accuracy, timeliness, and value of the content for guests, up-to-date information from various curated sources was used and cross-referenced. AI-powered content generation works with this reliable data to ensure the quality and relevance of recommendations and avoid “hallucinated” information. At the same time, new and interesting local services and activities were efficiently identified and included in a timely manner, so that guests and customers can always be provided with up-to-date offers.

This enhancement significantly improved the myLike business web application for hotels, mobility travel and tourism companies , resulting in higher customer satisfaction, improved customer retention and increased revenue from bookings and cross-selling of local services and activities. The AI-powered solution has proven to be a valuable part of myLike’s offering, helping to provide memorable experiences and memories for customers and guests.

BITS took on all IT roles during implementation, from conception to project management and individual development to operation of the finished solution.
