Christmas... in the News: Gift Ideas from ChatGPT, New Drive-thru Christmas Lights & Harrisburg Christmas & Gift Show

 


Welcome to this week's edition of Christmas... in the news. This is a weekly review of some of the Christmas articles and news over the last week. 

Ho! Ho! Ho! There are only 31 days left until Christmas. Are you getting excited? 

How is the decorating going at your place? Some of our outdoor lights are up, and the main tree--unlit and undecorated--made its way upstairs. Hurt my back recently, so trying not to overdue things. 

Hallmark kindly delivered my Christmas card order, and I bought a dozen homemade cards at one of the three holiday bazaars I've attended so far. Bought a few gifts, too. Our youngest is coming home for Thanksgiving break on Tuesday, so we might travel out on Saturday or Sunday to another holiday fair in a neighboring town. We do our best to shop local as much as we can.

Some of my friends have experienced the first snow of the season. How about you? We might get a bit of the white stuff on Black Friday. 

So, what's in this week's news? A lot! I'm sticking with a random selection of three items. We will start with something that has been in the news often lately: Artificial Intelligence.

The Guardian posted an article about using ChatGPT to help you find gifts for those you simply don't know how to buy for. It happens to all of us, right? Could AI give us a hand in finding that special gift? Read the article here to see what you think. 

Fox23News out of Tulsa reported on a new drive-through Christmas lights display called the Magical Lights Adventure. The founder has said it is an immersive and interactive experience. You can watch the video here.

The Frederick News-Post reported that The Pennsylvania Christmas + Gift Show is returning to the PA Farm Show Complex & Expo Center in Harrisburg from Dec. 4 to 8. Now in its 41st year, it will feature more than 550 vendors. It will also include special events and other features. You can check out more here.

That's it for me today. Enjoy your week!
