AI plans perfect beach picnicfrom @meta.ai

[01]

Overview

The creator documents her solo day in the South of France, using Meta AI as a travel assistant. She first asks the AI for the best place to buy picnic food in Nice, follows its recommendation to the Cours Saleya market, and then asks for a scenic beach, which leads her to Plage Paloma. She also uses the AI to find a portable picnic table, then proceeds to set up and enjoy an elaborate picnic on the beach before taking a swim.
