GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KREX) — Over the last year, Michael Motamedi, Vanessa Salas and their two-year-old daughter have traveled the world using an artificial intelligence (AI) travel guide to choose where they visit and what they experience at each destination.
On Wednesday, Motamedi told WesternSlopeNow about where he and his family traveled this year and how AI trip planning works.
Starting in June 2023, Michael and his family visited Morocco, Spain, France, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, the UAE, the Maldives, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines and Curaçao, using GuideGeek to plan every step of their journey.
Motamedi gave these tips if you’re thinking about using AI to plan your trip:
- Get creative with AI prompts beyond just “The best” this or that.
- Ask open-ended questions — you might end up in Montenegro.
- Resist the urge to double-check the AI — live in the moment.
