What's the best deal? A direct flight redeye? Or a daytime ticket with two layovers for $20 less? A $100 cheaper flight that gets in the night before to a city where hotels average $200?

And if you're thinking the LLM could just produce some options that might work before letting the user decide, well, that is what Google Flights already does.

    This 100%. UX/UI designers make tons of money for a good reason. They have to be experts in how computers approach a problem and how (non techie) humans approach a problem and basically translate between the two. The number of people with both of those skillsets is exceptionally small.

    I always think it's funny how the example tech companies ALWAYS use when describing how their products make your life easier is "booking a flight". The only folks for whom this makes it easier are folks for who the price does not matter.
