Another amazing use case of ChatGPT

– I am using ChatGPT4

Each summer I buy tickets to a local theatre and watch 4-5 shows there. Today I brought the tickets and wanted to add them into my diary (cos the ticket system didn’t provide ics files or calendar links.)


There were 5 tickets and a lot of details that I really couldn’t be bothered to do it myself. So I cmd+a to copy all info on the booking page (which contains all the time, date and show information). Then I pasted them into ChatGPT.

My prompt:

Create an ICS calendar file based on the following info. I use Mac calendar.

(The complete info is included but I put them in the end of the post so it looks neater.)

This is the conversation with ChatGPT:

It didn’t get it right the first time. But it kept trying different ways and eventually created a perfectly working ICS file for me.

Another 5-10 minutes saved.

The full booking info:

All prices are in Pound Sterlings.
