Delta Air Lines Vows to Avoid AI-Driven Personal Pricing
Delta Air Lines has committed not to use artificial intelligence for personalized ticket pricing following criticism from U.S. lawmakers. While the airline will deploy AI-powered revenue management by 2025, it insists it will not base pricing on personal data. Senators remain concerned and demand clarity on data collection practices.
Delta Air Lines has assured it will refrain from using artificial intelligence to set personalized ticket prices, a move made after receiving sharp criticism from U.S. lawmakers. The decision aims to address concerns that individualized pricing could exploit customers' financial limits.
Despite previous indications of integrating AI-based revenue management across 20% of its domestic network, Delta maintains that ticket pricing will not rely on personal data. The airline clarified its stance in a recent letter to lawmakers, emphasizing its commitment to customer-centered practices.
While the airline's resolution was welcomed, senators continue to express concerns regarding Delta's data use for pricing strategies. Lawmakers have introduced legislation aimed at preventing companies from using AI in pricing based on personal data, intensifying focus on industry pricing ethics.
