This was from an overheard conversation, so not 100% sure myself. It sounded like he was giving it a list of activities he wanted to achieve within a certain time window (going for a job, studying for exams, coursework, etc.), and asking it to write a schedule for him.

He then said he asked it to tweak it in a few ways (e.g. more time on study, a 5 minute break between activities, etc.). Then he'd print it out and pin to his desk.
