Airbnb Uses AI to Block Halloween Weekend Party Rentals

Airbnb is using artificial intelligence to crack down on party rentals for Halloween weekend.

The AI looks at factors like trip length and last-minute bookings to identify high-risk reservations.

The system is in place across the U.S. and Canada.

Last Halloween, Airbnb stopped 5,200 party rental attempts in Pennsylvania, including 2,400 in Philadelphia.

The AI has been effective at reducing disruptive party rentals during Halloween weekends.
