Hotel Management and HiveLLM

ProfitLabs is a vendor of a hotel management system, the self-described “best hotel management system for budget hotels.” Now I’ve been on the periphery of hotel management for a while with my identity verification work in the hospitality industry, so I appreciate that ProfitLabs requires partnerships to provide its solution.

And according to a ProfitLabs post, one of its valuable partners is…HiveLLM.

Why?

“One platform that has truly made a difference for us is HiveLLM—a revolutionary solution that bridges the gap between artificial intelligence and real human expertise.

“Unlike conventional AI tools that rely solely on automated outputs, HiveLLM offers access to a vetted community of experts, providing actionable, up-to-date consulting in real time.”

Um…others are not as convinced that HiveLLM is a great deal.

“I received a suspicious email from “Sara Romano,” a “scout” with HiveLLM who wanted me to bid on a biometric content calendar with a budget of “75000” (no currency specified).

“HiveLLM has no corporate address, no LinkedIn presence, … and an advertised business model in which you can ask a question for 10 cents.”

The good news is that there have been no recent mentions of “scout” Sara Romano on the series of tubes. Maybe she got sent to the minor leagues.

A Look at Biometric Accuracy in an Alternative Universe

Imagine an alternative universe in which a single human body had ten (different) faces and only one finger.

  • How accurate would facial recognition be?
  • How accurate would fingerprint identification be?

Think about the ramifications.

Ontario Travel Blog Ripped Off One Post Too Many

This is too funny.

Apparently Ontario Travel Blog is ripping off Bredemarket’s posts, including my December 8 post “‘Tis the Season to Be Scammy.“

Ontario Travel Blog’s version tries to cover its tracks by changing key words in its verison of the post, leading to hilarious results.

“However earlier than you reply to that mysterious “secret Santa” and ship that reward (or these reward playing cards) TODAY to obtain a highly-valued reward in return…know your corporation.”

Reward playing cards?

Know your corporation?

Wisconsin Travel Federation?

Well, at least it has a privacy policy.

Clowns.

Ontario International Airport 2025 Selected Highlights

Brooke Staggs wrote a blog post detailing 13 highlights at Ontario International Airport. I’m not going to go through all 13, but I did want to highlight three of them.

Yes, Ontario Airport is international

Staggs highlighted the, um, arrival of a new airport at ONT: STARLUX Airlines, flying nonstop to and from Taipei, Taiwan.

STARLUX flies from Ontario to Taipei four days a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday). Because you cross the international date line, the flight takes two days (but really less than a day).

Existing international service expands

Of course, Volaris has been at ONT for some time, but this year they added flights to Los Cabos (SJD), León (BJX) and Morelia (MLM). This is in addition to its existing service to Guadalajara (GDL), and totals 28 weekly flights in all with at least three flights per week to each destination.

On the domestic front

United Airlines flies nonstop from Ontario to Chicago’s O’Hare Airport. These are daily flights year-round. Somehow I got the idea that they are seasonal, but they are not.

If you want Portillo’s but don’t want to drive all the way to Moreno Valley or Buena Park, just drive to Ontario and fly to O’Hare.

AI and Human Clarinet Detection Failure: At Least There Were No Sax Or Violins

From Dangerous Minds:

“A school in Florida was forced into shutdown after an AI-based weapon detection system mistakenly triggered an entire campus lockdown by mistaking a clarinet for a firearm.”

The software was ZeroEyes, and it allows for human review for protection against a false positive. But in this case (like the Maryland chip case) the humans failed to discern that the “gun” wasn’t a gun.

While this may be a failure of AI weapons detection software, it is also a failure of the human reviewers.
