AI to add lists of meeting and event dates to calendar

While I am certainly struggling to learn more about how, and for what, to use AI, I got recent "wins" by using it to add lists of event and meeting dates to my calendar. One list of event dates was very well detailed (i.e. locations, times, and some event details), and I just told Gemini (via the app) to add it to my calendar and it did great (after first telling me how to link/allow my calendar). The others were a list of recurring monthly meetings, with quarterly ones marked that would be at a different location, but no dates or locations listed. So, for this one I used Gemini in my Gmail tab and gave times and locations in my prompt (i.e. "Add all these dates to my calendar from 6-7pm, and at 123 main street, except those with a *, they'll be at 567 Elm St") and Gemini added all the meetings with proper locations and times. The latter was a little faster than adding them manually (where I would have set one up to repeat monthly, deleted the quarterly ones, and then set a separate one with the different location to repleat quarterly)... but the former/events list was a TON faster due to having a lot of detail and great variation in date, time and location for each meeting (i.e. they couldn't be set to just "repeat monthly"). Baby steps...
