There aren’t many areas of digital life where I feel like we’re severely lacking AI solutions, but there’s one in particular where I can’t wait to get some kind of AI assistant: Maps.

I just want a text box where I can say that I ultimately want to get to my partner’s place, but first I want to stop by that bakery on the other side of town. I’d like the first part of the journey to be by bus, the second by train, and I want to arrive at roughly 12 PM.

Doing all of that manually is a pain in the ass. Get on it, John Ternus and Sundar Pichai.
