It’s summer in South Florida and I’m looking for fun things to do. Oh, I could certainly look at the arts section of the newspaper online, but I thought that it would be different to ask ChatGPT to create a one-day itinerary for me that is close to home.

I live on the Treasure Coast of Florida, and specifically asked the app to map out a day within easy driving distance.

Here’s what it suggested (my personal opinions are in parenthesis):

Destination: West Palm Beach, FL (this is not exactly in my backyard — I need to figure at least 1½ hours for driving in each direction + looking for parking as it sent me downtown, which means that 3–4 hours will be wasted on this at the minimum)

Morning:

  1. Start your day early to beat the traffic and make the most of your day in West Palm Beach. (hmmm…now I’m dealing with RUSH HOUR traffic — ADD a half hour to my day — NOT relaxing)
  2. Breakfast at “Havana Restaurant”: Begin your day with a delicious Cuban breakfast at this popular eatery. Try their Cuban toast…
