How People Plan to Use AI to Enhance Christmas Celebrations

With AI becoming increasingly popular and more immersed into people's everyday lives, many people are planning to turn to it for assistance throughout the festive period.

So, how many of us plan to use AI during the festive period to make Christmas more exciting?

Keen to learn more, the experts at AIPRM, a prompt management tool, conducted a survey of 2,500 UK adults to discover how many Brits plan to use AI to help make their Christmas more manageable. Commenting on their survey, Christoph C. Cemper, founder of AIPRM, said:

“The recent growth in the popularity of AI has been no secret, and has been at the centre of much debate for some time now. Despite this, people across the globe are embracing the technology and finding it useful for a plethora of tasks, be it in their working or personal lives.

It's great to learn more from our survey about how Brits will be using AI for a variety of tasks this festive season, whether it be to plan their itineraries, creating Christmas shopping lists, or even writing cards and messages to loved ones.

This curiosity amongst the nation when it comes to AI and how it can benefit our day to day lives is great to see, and there really are no ends to the benefits it can deliver.”

The survey found that:

• One in six (15%) Brits plan to use AI to create their Christmas day itinerary, whilst
• 14% plan to ask the bot for help writing cards/emails/Christmas greetings to loved ones.
• Meanwhile, a further 13% plan to seek the help of AI when writing Christmas quizzes/entertainment.

Interestingly, the survey also found that one of the top choices amongst Brits for AI-aided festive assistance was helping them to write Christmas cracker jokes, as one in six (15%) UK adults said they'd be turning to the bot to help with this.
