ChatGPT

[John&Andrea]

Just curious, has anyone used this to plan a trip. I’m playing around with it. Seems like it may work.

Pretty sure I read somewhere that Chat GPT is just for entertainment and will tell you things that are blatantly false if it thinks it's what you want to hear.

Glad that never happens on internet forums.

My only caveat would be if you're using the free version of ChatGPT Altman has incorporated a number of speed bumps ie., the number of messages you can access before you have to wait to reset and the depth of the information provided in order to incentivize users to migrate to the paid version. If you're using the free version make sure you know enough about what you're asking to detect if you're being led down a rabbit hole.
I think however something as relatively basic as trip planning would be a no brainer for the free version of any of the platforms.

Keep in mind that Chat's grandfather was the software that made up directions in GPS's. And what it still has in common is that it generally works great. Until it suddenly takes a left turn off a cliff or something. So to speak.
Essentially, sure it will work. Just be sure to fact check with some reality.

Given the energy it consumes and what it's doing to the price of computing components, I can't support using AI for anything.

Anthropic's CEO co- founder, Dario Amedai who along with his sister Daniella and all of the co-founders who like Amedai and Daniella migrated over from Open AI, claim that AI will supplant 50% of the cognizant repetitive workforce in America in 5-10 years. That means no more para-legals, remote workers, etc. Do the math, employers will be unencumbered of, payroll, health insurance, sick time, etc., AI doesn't scroll a phone, go on strike, sexually harass co-workers, ask for a raise, watch the clock, ......I understand what you're saying, but nothing is stopping this tsunami. I have a farm in N. Louisiana that 80 years ago employed 20 full time workers, today it employs one fulltime and one part-time except during harvest, both manage other properties as well and it's more productive than it was 80 years back. Times they are a changing.
