Santa’s New Helper: How AI Can Help You Wrap Up Your Holiday Shopping


Listen Later

Learn how AI tools can help you brainstorm personalized gift ideas, compare options, and simplify your holiday shopping.


How can AI help you save time and money? Should you trust AI for gift-giving advice? Hosts Tess Vigeland and Anna Helhoski explore how artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT can streamline holiday shopping. Joined by NerdWallet experts Amanda Barroso and Kurt Woock, they offer actionable tips for integrating AI into your shopping routine while staying cautious about its limitations. They discuss how AI can generate gift ideas tailored to your budget and preferences, provide practical starting points for decision-making, and even organize comparisons in easy-to-read formats.


In addition to the AI discussion, Tess and Anna recap the latest financial headlines, including the upcoming Black Friday Amazon worker strikes, the surprising drop in Thanksgiving dinner costs this year, and a rise in existing home sales as mortgage rates decline. 


In their conversation, the Nerds discuss: holiday shopping, AI shopping tools, Black Friday shopping, shopping with ChatGPT, using ChatGPT for holiday gift ideas, AI gift recommendations, online shopping, Christmas shopping, holiday sales, AI-generated gift ideas, personalized gift ideas, AI holiday planning, smart shopping with AI, time-saving holiday tips, and AI-driven gift ideas.
