• Could Amtrak become the next AirBnB? | Anthony D. Paul

  Devin talks with Anthony D. Paul, director of Strategic Foresight at Amtrak, about the future of rail travel. Anthony explains why he’s not in favor of replacing human crews with AI robots, what co-working spaces and trains have in common, and the lessons train operators can learn from Airbnb and Barbie.
