I see that a lot, and it's mind-boggling. If someone says "AI planned my vacation", I give it roughly:

     95% chance they're lying
    4.5% chance they're that foolish
    0.5% chance they're so rich they don't care.

Do you mean planning, or do you mean booking? Those are two very different things.

I use AI to plan stuff all the time, but then I book it all myself.

Planning != booking.

I use AI extensively in my trips. It’s not that I literally prompt ChatGPT and then walk away while it books everything. It’s just a search engine on steroids that I use to generate ideas and collate options until I choose the things I want.

Or it's a bit for the 'gram. Influencer Tech.unicorn gave AI a budget and asked it to make her birthday special. https://www.instagram.com/p/Dej2T6PmzwX/

I used AI to plan out my vacation. It helpfully suggested some improvements too

I certainly did not have AI do the bookings for my vacation though. Is that what you meant?

If people are that rich don't they just have a person to plan that shit for them?

People use AI whether they believe it or not. Think you found a hidden deal, and hidden cheap flight, leading you to a hidden matcha cafe with a hidden view? Think again! The booking company which is owned by a booking company which is owned by a booking company wanted you to find it.
