We Let AI Plan a Road Trip Through Canada (and IT WASN’T GOOD!)

Join us for a wild ride where we turn the reins over to ChatGPT to plan a van life road trip through British Columbia, Canada. Things start off promising, but soon start to unravel as we find closed campsites, restaurants that don't exist, and have a sketchy encounter with someone at camp (we got the knock!).

In this van life vlog, we put our trust in artificial intelligence to create a travel itinerary through an unfamiliar foreign country, and let's just say, it did not go as planned. Should we use ChatGPT to help plan a trip in the future? Would you let a robot create a travel guide for you? Let us know!
