My use case for AI is to get it to tell me water to cereal ratios, like for rice, oatmal, corn meal. If there is a mistake, I can easily control for it, and it's a decent enough starting point.
That said, I am just being lazy by avoiding taking my own notes. I can easily make my own list of water to cereal ratios to hang on the fridge.
Yeah, so far all of the cooking stuff I got from ChatGPT were things that I could've found on my own if I had searched better. It will give you a recipe that is edible. It will have the same 4-6 spices as every other recipe and it will require a can of tomatoes. These are all savory dishes; I assume there are a different set of spices and no tomatoes if it's sweet, but I haven't tested that theory.
It gets old quick.
