The Guardian tells this Sunday the story of a young Londonian in New York. She had decided to rent an airbnb during her stay but did not expect events. At the end of his rental period, the owner, however well rated on the online platform, said that the young woman did enormous damage in the apartment. He estimates their price at 13,770 euros.
Stone by such amounts, the Briton contacts Airbnb trying to obtain explanations. She tells the Guardian: “Airbnb not only omitted to identify this obvious manipulation, but completely ignored my explanations and the obvious evidence that the photos were made. ” The rental platform then asked him to pay a sum of 6097 euros to the owner. The problem ? These damage never existed and it created them from all sides using artificial intelligence. “”Given the ease with which such images can now be generated by AI and apparently accepted by Airbnb despite the investigations, it should not be so easy for a host to get away with proofs in this way “adds the young woman.
