I did, and now I make complete use of it, too! There are several ways that I use <strong>artificial intelligence in daily life<\/strong>, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Checking what a student schedule could look like<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curating a schedule during such busy months can be a stressful task. But, using artificial intelligence, you can gain so much information on what a student schedule could look like, and then schedule work according to what works best for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I requested generative AI to create a student-friendly daily schedule, it made every single hour of the day extremely valuable and included enough breaks and free time to unwind and relax after a hectic day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"663\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.22.01-PM-1024x663.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of a ChatGPT prompt and answer for a student-friendly daily schedule\" class=\"wp-image-49035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.22.01-PM-1024x663.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.22.01-PM-300x194.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.22.01-PM-768x497.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.22.01-PM-1536x995.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.22.01-PM-2048x1326.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>A student-friendly schedule, created by AI<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Creating a basic grocery list<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing what you need in terms of groceries is fantastic, and asking an artificial intelligence bot about what a grocery list includes can give me ideas so I can get the groceries I need! There are days where I know exactly what I need from the market; but, when I ask AI for help, I remember all the things that I had completely forgotten about and can make sure that my house is well-stocked for the entire week with the required supplies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-13-at-10.28.31-PM-1024x644.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of a ChatGPT prompt and answer for a grocery list\" class=\"wp-image-48924\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-13-at-10.28.31-PM-1024x644.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-13-at-10.28.31-PM-300x189.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-13-at-10.28.31-PM-768x483.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-13-at-10.28.31-PM-1536x965.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-13-at-10.28.31-PM-2048x1287.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Using generative AI to create a grocery list<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Managing your finances<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating a monthly budget using artificial intelligence is another good way of making use of such resources. Overspending as a student is normal but controlling that as soon as you can is an extremely important skill that takes some time to build. Artificial intelligence created a student-friendly monthly budget for me when I prompted it to curate one, and it did so by randomly guessing my allowance and part-time job income. If you prompt it to curate a budget according to your details, it will do just that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"707\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.28.31-PM-1024x707.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of a ChatGPT prompt and answer for a student-friendly financial budget\" class=\"wp-image-49036\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.28.31-PM-1024x707.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.28.31-PM-300x207.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.28.31-PM-768x530.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.28.31-PM-1536x1061.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-26-at-3.28.31-PM-2048x1414.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Using generative AI to create a student-friendly financial budget<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Creating a workout schedule<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing what exercise schedule works best for you can be another use of artificial intelligence. One of the most essential aspects of my life is working out, but following the same routine every week becomes immensely monotonous. Therefore, in order to spice things up at the gym, I requested generative AI for a fun and impactful workout schedule with the required number of reps and sets.
