Hi, Kim Commando here.

What digital life hack can help improve my weekend planning?

Kim Komando 0:01

Well, first up, we have your digital life hack. And after that, I'm going to play a call from my weekend national radio show. It's Friday and you're about to spend half your weekend figuring out what to do with your weekend. Stop. There's AI for that. I'm Kim Commando for The Current, my free five-star rated newsletter read by almost a million people just like you. Sign up now at GetKim.com. Here's what I'd like you to try today. Open ChatGPT or Gemini and say, it's Friday, I'm tired. Give me one fun thing for Saturday, one productive thing for Sunday, and some real downtime. Budget's 100 bucks. Plan it. 30 seconds later, you've got a Saturday morning farmer's market with a five-star coffee shop nearby, a Sunday afternoon to batch cook three meals with recipes, and a schedule that tells you when to knock out the laundry so it doesn't hijack the day.

How can AI simplify my weekend activities?

And do it right now before the weekend's all gone. Sign up for my free newsletter at GetKim.com. Next up, a call for my weekend show, The Kim Commando Show. Enjoy.

Alrighty then, Steve in Salt Lake City, Utah. Oh, I love this. A European vacation right up my alley. I love to travel. What's going on? Hello, Kim. How are you? Great, great.

Steve 2:26

It's a pleasure to speak with you and Andrew today. I'm looking forward to this conversation. So you're planning to trip? Are you taking us with you?

Kim Komando 2:33

Yeah, are you taking us with you?

Steve 2:35

Unfortunately, I can't do that. Uncle Steve. Oh, brother Steve. I know. Yeah, my daughter's been in the Army for the past five years, and she's getting out in the middle of April. Oh, nice. So my wife and I are planning, she wants to go to the U.K., so we're going to take her on a 10- to 12-day trip to the U.K., So my goal is to plan out the whole trip using AI, like we're going to start in London and end up in Manchester. So like 12 days, rental car, where to stay, because we want to stay like in base. She's a big Pride and Prejudice Jane Austen girl. So she wants to go see all these little villages and... How fabulous. That's going to be so fun. So we want to be able to like, okay, which villages do we want to get an Airbnb in or a Vrbo?

Steve 3:26

Where's a good base to stay in this location? Where's a good base city for this location? And, you know, how many days to get to these areas? So I've been looking at AI to help me with this.

What is the best way to utilize AI for trip planning?

Steve 3:38

And when you Google it or whatever, you get to, like, bookings.com or, you know, these different travel sites, right? And they have their AI. But they want you to, you know, everything through them, right? So I don't want to do that. So I'm just looking for good AI, you know, plan a good 10-, 12-day trip, you know, Here's the areas we want to see and see what it says.

Kim Komando 4:00

I would probably start with Gemini, Google Gemini.

Steve 4:04

Google Gemini?

Kim Komando 4:05

Yeah, because it'll pull directly from Google Maps and Google Flights and will give you some real-time info.
