    The idea is the AI would automatically look at what you have and come up with something, substituting ingredients for what you have as necessary.

    But as in the staged example they’ve put together here, that required you to find and lay out all your ingredients already so you’ve already done 90% of the work. Are my AI glasses going to be able to scan all my cupboards and fridge and pantry for things first and then go from there? It’s a bad solution to a problem that doesn’t really exist.

    Have you tried looking for a recipe in the last 10 years or so? 10 pages of fluff with a recipe the author cobbled together from other recipes and guess work and made exactly 1 time if that at the bottom.

    Yes, all the time, I even looked at recipes for “Korean style steak sauce” to prove my point and got probably a dozen decent ones straight away, including a couple from very well recognised sites like BBC Good Food.

    And where exactly do you suppose the LLM has scraped together all it’s information from for what you can substitute canola oil or sesame seeds for? Those exact recipes you could just have searched for.

      Who cares? It’s still more convenient.
