Artificial intelligence never stops surprising us. It’s the fastest growing all consuming technology that will change all of our lives forever, mainly because it will be able to do everything we do for work. And someday soon we’ll all be on *** permanent vacation. Speaking of which travel and leisure reports that Expedia, one of the biggest travel planning and booking services has *** new feature on their website and app. *** chat GP bot that will help you figure out where you want to go and how the *** I will store the information and make suggestions based on your preferences according to Peter Kern Ceo of Expedia Group, by integrating chat GPT into the Expedia app and combining it with our other *** I based shopping capabilities like hotel comparison, price tracking for flights and trip collaboration tools. We can now offer travelers an even more intuitive way to build their perfect trip. So for example, I’m gonna tell Chad GP T bot that I would like to go on *** tropical vacation with my kids. And the bot will ask me how old my Children are after I type three and six. The bot will ask what do you do? And I will say I used to write articles for Buzz 60 until you took that away from me.
When Elyse Nguyen was nearing her wedding date in February and still hadn’t started writing her vows, a friend suggested she try a new source of inspiration: ChatGPT.Video Above: Expedia Now Using AI to Make Travel Booking More PersonalThe AI chatbot, which was released publicly in late November, can generate compelling written responses to user prompts and offers the promise of helping people get over writer’s block, whether it be for an essay, an email, or an emotional speech.”At first we inputted the prompt as a joke and the output was pretty cheesy with personal references to me and my husband,” said Nguyen, a financial analyst at Qualcomm. “But the essence of what vows should incorporate was there — our promises to each other and structure.”She made edits, changed the prompts to add humor and details about her partner’s interests, and added some personal touches. Nguyen ultimately ended up using a good portion of ChatGPT’s suggestions and said her husband was on board with it.”It helped alleviate some stress because I had no prior experience with wedding vows nor did I know what should be included,” Nguyen said. “Plus, ChatGPT is a genius with alliteration, analogies and metaphors. Having something like, ‘I promise to be your partner in life with the enthusiasm of a golfer’s first hole-in-one’ in my back pocket was comical.”Nearly five months after ChatGPT went viral and ignited a new AI arms race in Silicon Valley, more couples are looking to it for help with wedding planning, including writing vows and speeches, drafting religious marriage contracts, and setting up websites for the special day.Ellen Le recently created some of her wedding website through a new Writer’s Block Assistant tool on the online wedding planning service Joy, which was one of the first third-party platforms to incorporate ChatGPT’s technology. (Last month, OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, opened up access to the chatbot, paving the way for it to be integrated into numerous apps and services.)Le, a product manager at a startup, said she used the feature to draft an “about us” page and write directions from San Francisco to her Napa Valley wedding. The Writer’s Block Assistant tool helps users write vows, best man and maid of honor speeches, thank you cards and wedding website “about us” pages. It lets users highlight personal stories and select the style or tone before pulling words into a speech.”I started drafting my vows and when I typed in how we met, it produced this very delightful story,” Le said. “Some of it was inaccurate, making up certain details, but it gave me a helping hand and something to react to, rather than just spending 10 hours thinking about how to get started.”Le said her fiance, who often uses ChatGPT for work, is considering using AI to help with his vows too.Joy co-founder and CEO Vishal Joshi, who studied artificial intelligence and electrical engineering at NIT Rourkela in India, said the company launched Writer’s Block Assistant in March after it conducted an internal study that found most of its users were somewhat overwhelmed with getting started on writing vows and speeches, and wished they had help. He said the company has already seen thousands of submissions since launching the tool.”Almost two decades ago, AI enthusiasts like myself and my research peers had only dreamt of the mass market adoption we are seeing today, and we know this is just the true beginning,” Joshi said. “Just like smartphones, if applied well, the positive impact of AI on our lives can far outshine the negatives.
