I recently compiled a list of my favorite generative AI tools for boosting productivity in the workplace , but what about life outside of work?
Can generative AI also help you track, organize, manage, and automate the mundane tasks you’re trying to fit into your busy schedule?
That's right: smart people are developing AI tools and applications for many of our mundane (and not-so-mundane) activities, from cooking and cleaning to staying healthy and managing our finances.
Here we outline some of the things that might be especially helpful in saving you time on your daily chores and activities, and spending it on more stimulating and rewarding things.
5 generative AI tools for everyday life
Let's start by looking at five great generative AI tools that can significantly improve your daily life, from managing your finances and planning your meals to optimizing your travels. These innovative applications are designed not only to simplify mundane tasks, but also to enrich your daily experience and free up time for more enjoyable activities.
Cleo
Cleo is a personal budgeting app that helps users track their finances and spending using a conversational, generative interface. The app provides insights into spending habits in natural language and allows users to ask questions and interact through a chatbot interface. Its flexible, user-friendly design includes a “roast mode” that scolds wasteful spending and a “hype mode” that uses language to encourage savings and investments.
Expedia
Travel search engine Expedia has built a generative AI chat feature into its iOS app to act as a virtual travel agent, so users can get quick answers to their holiday questions in easy-to-understand natural language, instead of sifting through the 1,600 trillion combinations of dates, destinations and airlines offered on the company's website.
Expedia Group was one of the first major online services to partner with ChatGPT creators OpenAI, and its personalized travel assistant Romie is powered by GPT-4. As well as natural language search, it allows users to create personalized travel plans and quickly read summaries of guest reviews.
Chef GPT
Who doesn't sometimes get stuck when trying to think of dinner ideas? Or have you ever found yourself with a bunch of random ingredients sitting around in your kitchen that just don't seem to go together?
ChefGPT aims to solve these everyday problems by acting as a personal chef and kitchen assistant. ChatGPT caters to a variety of diets, including vegan and keto, and also acts as a personal nutritionist, helping users reach their specific nutritional goals while adhering to personal dietary restrictions. It also suggests wine pairings that go perfectly with the meals it generates.
Mods
Home renovations and DIY are fun, but it's often hard to visualize the results of your latest epic design. This app lets you realistically visualize any interior or exterior design or landscaping project you can imagine. Just upload an image or enter the dimensions of your room and instantly see how it would look in different styles.
Fit GPT
An AI-powered fitness coach generates personalized training schedules, meal plans, and motivation. While there are several generative AI fitness coach apps available today, FitGPT stands out for its ability to customize fitness programs based on individual user data and its user-friendly approach to help individuals achieve their goals. It also offers dietary and nutritional advice and is set to be accessible to anyone, regardless of their starting fitness level. It is completely free for users of the basic plan.
