Airbnb CEO says AI agent traffic is very non-material to bookings
Overview
Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky, in an earnings call summary quoted by an X post, says the company gets about 500,000 bookings a day and calls traffic from AI agents, including Muse and Instinct, "very non-material." The same summary says the average user views dozens of listings and 25+ photos, 90% message hosts, and 80% of travelers prefer doing their own research.
The figures come from a secondhand post summarizing the call, not from a transcript or Airbnb's own filing.
