Earlier this week at Google I/O, Google announced that Gemini was getting a new trip planning tool. This tool can sift through your emails to find flight and hotel details, then works on a personalized itinerary for the duration of your vacation.
Trip planning is hard work, and the idea that you could get a virtual travel agent to do it for you could seem appealing. But as someone right in the middle of planning a once-in-a-lifetime trip, I do not find the idea of handing that work off to AI particularly appealing. The fact is, I’m actually enjoying the whole trip planning process and figuring out what I want to do.
