Reserved trains, the operator believes that his work is done. But I need a place to stay, I remind you – Should I book a hotel? He asks for more details, and I am deliberately unclear, specifying that it should be comfortable and conveniently located. Comparison of hotels is perhaps my least favorite aspect of travel planning, so I am ecstatic to leave it to scroll through booking.com. I am arising from jumping when I see that he sets the wrong dates, but he corrects it himself. He spends some time in IBIS research, but eventually chooses a three -star hotel called Martin’s Brugge, which, as I notice, users assessed as an excellent location.
Now everything that is left is the route. Here it seems that the operator is losing a couple. It offers a perfect one -day schedule, which seems to be mainly a frenzy from the vegetarian travel blog. On the second day, he suggests that “I visit other attractions or museums.” Wow, thanks for the tip.
The day of travel is coming, and when I get out of bed at 4:30, I remember why I usually avoid early departures. Still, I get to Brussels without a problem. My ticket allows you to travel further, but I realize that I don’t know where I’m going. I happen to the operator on the phone and ask from which platform the next train associated with Brugami leaves. Looking for Belgian railway schedules. A few minutes later he is still looking. I look up and see the details on the station display. I reach for the platform before the operator comes up with it.
Bruges is delightful. Given the indigent operator’s route, I will branch. I am aware that this kind of research task is ideal for a gigantic language model – it does not require agency. Chatgpt, the operator’s siblings, gives me a much more correct plan, planning actions with a suggestion not only where to eat, but what to order (Flemish stew at de Halve Mann brewery). I also try Google’s Gemini and Anthropic’s Claude, and their plans are similar: a walk to the market square; See the Tower of the Belfry; Visit the Basilica of Holy Blood. Bruges is a diminutive town and I can’t not wonder if it is simply a standard tourist route or whether all AI models receive their information from the same sources.
Various AI tools specific to travel try to break this generality. I will briefly try Mindtrip, which contains a map next to the written travel plan, offers personalization of quiz -based recommendations and contains functions of joint travel cooperation. CEO of Andy Moss claims that he is expanding the wide LLM capabilities, using a “knowledge base” specific for traveling containing such things as weather data and real -time availability.
