Meet the computer scientist using artificial intelligence to help 140,000 paying customers plan the perfect Disney vacation

#artificialintelligence

I have an alarm set for 3 a.m. on Sunday morning, which is the earliest that we can start making restaurant reservations for our trip. There's even a spreadsheet with all the restaurants we want to visit, as meticulously researched from videos and handy guides from places like Disney Food Blog and WDW Prep School. So I was more than receptive when someone recommended that I check out TouringPlans.com It's a premium service, with subscriptions priced starting at $16 per year. It has seven full-time employees on the staff, and 12 part-time employees, says Testa, as well as a business in publishing "Unofficial Guides" to Disney World, Disneyland, and other popular tourist destinations.

There's even a spreadsheet with all the restaurants we want to visit, as meticulously researched from videos and handy guides from places like Disney Food Blog and WDW Prep School. So I was more than receptive when someone recommended that I check out TouringPlans.com-- a site that uses complex algorithms to help you plan the perfect vacation at Disney World, Disneyland, or a handful of other theme parks like Universal Studios Orlando.
