Last week my family and I went down to Austin for a little getaway, and my new hack for planning activities: ChatGPT. It's so simple and even if you don't follow it completely, it can give some great starting points on where to stay, eat, visit, and more.

So, this got me thinking, if a family wanted to stay in Dallas for a few nights, what are some family-friendly, good value spots? Well, my pal ChatGPT has some ideas.

And again, it's a great starting point if nothing else. Especially if you're not sure where to begin looking. Alright, here we go:
