Sorry but even keeping aside the poor presentation (as others have pointed out), the functionality itself is not clear at all.

I read the "What This AI Calendar Does" three times over and I'm still at a loss. Is this a test to recognize AI slop?

Yeah sorry for the big paragraph in that initial page. I just did not want to leave anything out, which funnily enough resulted in me making silly mistakes.

Thanks for the comment! Essentially, when you sign up, you get access to a calendar where you can add tasks or events for the upcoming week. On the day of the event, the AI generates a response based on the task you created, giving you a starting point for when it’s time to work on it. If you'd like to modify the response, you can just chat with the AI. I thought this idea would be helpful since I often add tasks to my own calendar but struggle with procrastination. Having that extra push to get started seemed like a good way to help people get things done faster.

Of course, this is still a work in progress, and I’m definitely open to suggestions or feature ideas. Thanks again for your feedback, and if you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

Framed in a slightly less condescending way: what kind of prompts are you sending the AI about my events?

How does it give me a starting point for "Fix bug tickets that came in over holidays" or "run to trader joe's to pick up groceries"? If this isn't a good use case for it, what kind of events are?

Yeah, totally get it. I know some of my family members use their calendars for tasks like those, but personally, I just use Notepad or the Notes app on my phone. For me, I often use the calendar to write down more work-related tasks, like 'start essay on the risks of obesity' or other essays I need to work on. Or maybe tasks like 'prepare for presentation' or 'need to revise for test on biology create notes'.

The main reason I suggested creating tasks that might need help generating content is based on my own experience with ChatGPT. I mostly used it for summaries, idea generation, coding help, and brainstorming ideas. I know some people also use it for casual conversations, but my focus was on those more practical use cases.

To make this process easier, I’ve added a dropdown menu when setting up events, which includes prompts for things like summaries, brainstorming, and learning help. However, in the actual dropdown, there are more than three options, as having just three can be limiting. You can select one of these prompts, and based on your event title and optional description, the AI will generate content tailored specifically to your task.

If you have any more questions please ask!

Gotcha. This is a helpful explanation. Thanks!
