Ask any parent and theyll tell you that the laundry list of daily tasks is relentless. Now, some are turning to a new kind of support system: artificial intelligence. One mom has recently gone viral on TikTok for co-parenting her child with the help of ChatGPT. Lilian Schmidt, a corporate brand strategist based in Zurich, Switzerland, began sharing her AI prompts earlier this year. Since then, shes built a community of over 21,000 followers who swear by her tips for navigating the highs and lows of parenthood. Schmidt has a partner, but with both working full-time, she found herself increasingly burnt out by the mental load of parenting their three-year-old. So she turned to ChatGPT. Whether its generating imaginative bedtime stories, creating cleaning schedules, offering advice on sleep regressions, or planning meals based on whats in the fridge, the AI helped her offload the logistics of parentingfreeing her up to simply be present with her daughter. I feel like Im cheating at mom life, she wrote in one post. @heylilianschmidt If this is your vibe, I wanna be friends! And if you want this kind of life, but dont know how or where to start – COMMENT life and Ill give you 7 of my best ChatGPT prompts to get you started! #livingourbestlife #motheranddaughter #momlifevibes #sahmtok #toddlermoms #chatgpt #chatgptformoms As It Was – Harry Styles Parental stress, the U.S. Surgeon General warned earlier this year, is a public health crisis. Parents are consistently more likely than other adults to report high levels of stress, so its no surprise that many are seeking creative solutions to manage the load. ChatGPT literally helped me with breastfeeding, and how to decorate my daughter birthday cake, one commenter wrote under Schmidts video. Chat gpt is carrying the weight of my family at this point, another added. @heylilianschmidt HERES EXACTLY HOW I GOT HERE This is the version of mom life I used to think was impossible. I took me 3 years to get here, because nothing worked: Waking up before the kids Ruthless declutterring Having a new routine Whatever I tried, the mental load was still there – stressing me out and preventing me from being fully present with my kids and enjoying our little life Until I thought: what if someone (or something) could carry the mental load FOR me? I started playing around with ChatGPT – and it didnt just become a tool. It became my mom assistant, my co-parent, my second brain when mines filled with cotton candy and empty batteries Wanna try and see for yourself?

But not everyone is on board with AI-assisted parenting. Is it just me, or is it a problem that women feel relief turning to AI instead of their partners? one commenter asked. Others raised concerns about the environmental cost of AI, and what that might mean for the next generation.

With the White House Rose Garden grass ripped out and replaced with a brand new stone patio, the Mar-a-Lago-ification of the White House has reached a new phase. After returning to office for a second term, President Donald Trump quickly took to updating White House interiors to better match his maximalist, rococo aesthetic with elements like gold embellishment in the Oval Office and more pictures of himself lining the hallways. Now, the new Rose Garden patio and other recent and planned outdoor updates represent more permanent updates to the most historically significant home in the United States. Trump isn’t just redecoratinghe’s working to leave his physical mark on the property, and the Rose Garden is just the beginning. The Rose Garden in July of 2024.

Kennedy’s administration by gardener Rachel Mellon, the Rose Garden has hosted presidential press conferences and the 1971 wedding of Richard Nixon’s daughter Tricia. August, 2025. [Photo: Jim Watson/AFP/Getty Images] According to Trump, though, the space was unusable after it rained. “We had to do it,” Trump told reporters Sunday. “When we had a press conference, youd sink into the mud.” The new patio just so happens to resemble the patio at Mar-a-Lago where he holds court. The National Park Service oversaw the Rose Garden’s redesign, and it was paid for by the Trust for the National Mall, a nonpartisan nonprofit. Work began on the patio on June 11, and one week later, Trump had two jumbo, car dealership-sized flag poles installed on the White House’s North and South lawns. Now that the patio’s done, Trump is turning his attention to his next project: a planned $200 million ballroom inside of the White House. The White House said construction begins next month on the 90,000-square-foot ballroom, which resembles Mar-a-Lago in renderings. Preservationists are worried. On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order promoting traditional, classic federal civic architecture, but at home, he’s following his own rules. This isn’t a revival of classical architecture as much as it is an attempt to bring the style of South Florida to D.C. Redesigning the landscape was just the first step. No matter how far Trump’s White House renovations end up going, one thing’s for certain: the office won’t look the same after he’s done with it.

Booking your last minute summer getaway? Delta recently revealed to what extent it’s using artificial intelligence to set ticket prices. And while this is just the beginning of the AI revolution in pricing, here’s some insight into how it’s working so far, and how it may expand to other industries in the future. What has Delta said about AI pricing? Delta recently made headlinessparking backlash from consumer groups and concern from Congresswhen president Glen Hauenstein revealed in the airline’s latest earnings call that the company is currently using AI for 3% of domestic pricing, with the goal of using it for about 20% by the end of the year. “So, we’re in heavy testing phase. We like what we see. We like it a lot and we’re continuing to roll it out,” Hauenstein said. “But we’re going to take our time and make sure that the rollout is successful . . . the more data it has and the more cases we give it, the more it learns.” When Fast Company reached out to Delta about how this might affect consumers, the airline referred to its letter to senators Ruben Gallego, Richard Blumenthal, and Mark Warner, which stated it is not “using, and [does not] intend to use, AI for ‘individualized’ pricing or ‘surveillance’ pricing, leveraging consumer-specific personal data, such as sensitive personal circumstances or prior purchasing activity to set individualized prices . . . There is no fare product Delta has ever used, is testing or plans to use that targets customers with individualized prices based on personal data.” What AI will likely end up doing, according to ThePointsGuy’s Clint Henderson, is creating a dynamic pricing model on steroids,” pinpointing flight prices with greater accuracy, and a whole lot faster. What variables go into AI airline flight pricing? Delta has partnered with Israel-based software startup Fetcherr, which utilizes its Large Market Model (LLM) to decode intricate market behavior and forecast financial trends, coupled with historical and current data. Fetcherr’s approach encompasses a comprehensive range of factors that influence market dynamics, and its recent white paper lists a few of those variables that go into airline flight pricing, namely: “seat availability, current news, weather conditions, significant events, flight schedules, and even fluctuating oil prices, among others.” The question on most passengers’ minds is whether working with companies like Fetcherr will lead airlines to use personalized pricing. Like Delta, Fetcherr told Fast Company its technology has been developed to streamline processes already in place at companies, and “does not allow for individualized or personalized pricing.” “Our Generative AI system does not and will not use, collect or receive any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) [and] remains steadfast in our commitment to transparency and to our compliance with applicable regulations,” a spokesperson for Fetcherr said in a statement. Delta isn’t the only airline using AI In its white paper, Fetcherr said it has also partnered with: Virgin Atlantic, UK; Viva Aerobus, Mexico; West Jet, Canada; and Royal Air Maroc, with a primary focus on optimizing key aspects such as pricing and inventory management. What’s next for Fetcherr AI after airline pricing? Looking ahead, Fetcherr said it plans to expand into other industries like hospitality, insurance, commerce, and capital markets, with its models expanding beyond pricing and inventory decisions to more complex challenges, such as making supply chain decisions and engaging in B2B strategic decision making.
