For two industries with much in common, the difference in the adoption of artificial intelligence on private jets versus superyachts is stark. While aviation has used AI in engines for 30 years, the superyacht industry is yet to get started.
So, why the disparity between AI usage on large yachts and private planes? After all, the target market for both is similar, with many ultra high net worth individuals (UHNWIs) owning one (or more) of each asset.
