I often feel like the use cases, demos, etc. that these Silicon Valley employees put out are based around their needs and how they operate.
"Oh hey! Here's a demo of an AI planning out a 1-week trip to Paris!" No one in Middle America would just hand their credit card to an AI and let it come up with such a trip!

I used https://github.com/cablate/mcp-google-map https://github.com/cablate/mcp-google-map for the MCP (and patched it to generate URLs for the maps).
