This check generator will help you put your goals in order. Roughly.
Who has never wanted to go to Mars, get married, sell their apartment, change the tire on their bike or even welcome a new journalist to their editorial team? If you recognize yourself, we have discovered the tool you need to achieve your goals. Or almost.
This tool is Checklist Generator. As it says in English, it will create a task list for you to carry out your daily missions. Since everything is more fun with a little gamification, checking boxes brings a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction. And then as a good Cartesian, breaking down a problem to solve it remains the basis of the method.
We have stained our daily life with Checklist Generator
We have tried Checklist Generator on lots of subjects and we can only notice that it is uneven in its proposals. Changing a bicycle tire, for example, gives a very complete list of tasks, ranging from utensils to final reassembly.
Having this very detailed example, we say to ourselves that we are going to go a little further and put ourselves in the shoes of an eccentric billionaire, on the days when he does not want to ruin a social network purchased for much too much. Going to Mars, in how many steps? If it took 10 to change a bicycle wheel, it only takes 6 to reach the red planet. Do some research, train to be an astronaut, find a good spaceship, write the mission roadmap, remember how to communicate with Earth, and consider the risks and their mitigations. Packed and weighed, shall we get started?
Even funnier: getting married. The task list is so huge that it overhangs the screen and crashes the site. Even more surprising, asking the question in French and getting the French version of the answer at least halves the difficulty of planning.

How does this task generator work?
By its irregularity in its results and its ability to do tasks for almost anything and everything, we suspect that Checklist Generator is not enriched by a human who would type very very quickly. The site, sparing in details on its method, relies on Vercel, a solution which highlights its ability to deploy projects based on AI in no time. On the site page, we can even see that it is possible to rely on OpenAI, ChatGPT editor.
We tried one of the queries (go to Mars) in the OpenAI tool directly and the least we can say is that ChatGPT takes the mission a little less lightly, with 9 parts, 2 has 4 sub-parts and as many comments in each sub-part. We can only imagine, therefore, that the prompt used by Checklist Generator expressly requests a radical simplification of the task list. Even if it means not really knowing how to tick the first one.
