Why should I ask an LLM for a recipe that might fuck up the ingredient proportions all to hell when I can type a recipe into google and get highly-rated recipes that are already proven to work?
If I'm going to build off a recipe then it ought to be one that I know is at least decent instead of one that might be total ass because of an AI hallucination.

Claude Code will spin up 10 subagents scraping 1000 websites to get you the absolute best recipe known to man for the general idea you had in mind. It will also offer substitutions based on what you have on the fridge and your kitchen tools, and guide you through cooking the recipe.

>>22124109

AI gave that as an answer because of a subreddit called r/cookingcirclejerk a subreddit that mocked the retardation on r/cooking. r/cooking has basically the same posts as /ck/.

basically people repost a question that is a direct quote or slightly exaggerated copy of a post in r/cooking then people respond and give answer that are just as retarded as the question. upvoting the most retarded responses. basically like what goes on here.

some idiot programmed the AI or the AI decided that upvoted posts mean that must be the best answer so it repeats bullshit. the AI is so retarded it can't tell when someone is pretending to be retarded, sarcastic, making shit up. AI is your clueless grandma who discovered google.

Some recipes are better than others. Claude Code makes a judgement call on which one would suit me best, based on what I have in the fridge, how much time I have to prepare the meal, etc.

Cookbooks and videos from trusted sources tend to offer higher quality recipes. The internet is absolutely chock-full of bullshit recipes, especially on on user-driven platforms.
>Ever since Claude got good
Not believable. Kiss my piss, nerd shill.
>>
>>22124218
If I have random weird cooking ideas I'll bounce them off the ai to see what it has to say sometimes.
It works really well for recipe suggestions as well. Then you can do your own research on recipes outside the ai to double check their work.

You're angry. Take a deep breath and come back with an argument.

>>22124232
Cookbooks are almost always ghostwritten by people in lower-middle income countries that copy-paste recipes from the internet.
Youtube is filled with grifters shilling BetterHelp and meal boxes for three hundred bucks per video.
Claude Code will scrape 100 cooking enthousiast websites, cross-reference information and read the user discussion, while taking into account what you have in the kitchen, to provide the best customised suggestion for (You). You're probably too poor to afford it, or too stupid to get it to work.

I do now, YouTube videos have too much unnecessary fluff. Websites are filled with 20 page biographies before the recipe. Cookbooks might not have the recipe I’m looking for.

because they're luddites who have been propagandized to hate technology. AI is great at producing recipes and other cooking advice, and is far more efficient than trawling through aggregate recipe sites. and will almost certainly get you better results than following some boomer recipe on allrecipes.com. but you are not allowed to have any nuance in your opinion beyond 'AI bad' so if you dare suggest it might actually be useful for something you will be crucified.

I use cookbooks because 99% of French,Italian, Spanish, German, Belgian and Spanish cookbooks were never translated or put online. As a result 99.99% of videos and websites are utter shit.

Pépin, Child and Hazan are shit. Ramsay wrote one (1) good cookbook. Escoffier was a scam to begin with: 20 different writers, only credited in the original 1903 French edition, recipes never checked or simply imagined. And that shit gets parroted indefinitely online by retards like it's the law.

I've been cooking with ChatGPT
I find that the recipes are pretty solid and great bases to work from that are more than capable of standing on their own. It's even fun to come up with your own ideas for an ingredient and work with the AI to incorporate it into the recipe
On top of that, the AI learns what you like and don't like and will actually give you suggestions based on your personalized palate. It's pretty incredible

>>22124395
Sure, you *can* come out with a good recipe, but he's right that it's almost always awful for AI-related limitations. Something as simple as adding an ingredient that doesn't belong in what it's spitting out because a mutually exclusive version of the recipe uses it sometimes, for example. I've seen cake recipes use way too many acidic ingredients and totally fuck up the balance because every one of those ingredients are in a litany of actual recipes by themselves. Just because recipes use lemon juice, buttermilk, yogurt, or vinegar doesn't mean you should use more than one. That's the sort of thing that has you end up with a dogshit result because the LLM you're trying to justify your subscription to aggregated a bunch of recipes together and spat out an untested amalgamation of them all.
>>
LLMs really do suck for this. Their MO is to just hybridize other recipes they know. In practice this means they will tell to use the maximum number of ingredients and thats just bad cooking. However they are still better than the SEO hell that comes up when you google recipes.
>>
>>22124784
>However they are still better than the SEO hell that comes up when you google recipes.
Whatever you get from an actual website at the top of a google search for a recipe will be thrice as good as what an LLM throws you. "Thrice as good as an LLM recipe" is a low low bar but let's not forget who wins the race to the bottom here.

AI is the eternal yes-man. If you're prompting your way to a perfect answer every time, then it's because you already knew the answer and you're just teasing the LLM along like a carrot on a stick for the dopamine rush of getting it to spit out what you knew you wanted anyway.
If you're asking for incredibly vague random ideas that you'll then do 90% of the work in realizing then you can use AI for that, but if you actually have ever managed a kitchen then you'd know you could just ask your stoned coworkers. At least they'd push back on things they disagreed with.

Using AI for cooking is just like using AI for every other application: if you have absolutely no idea what you're doing then it can help you be less retarded (usually). But once you actually know what you're doing you realize that its indiscriminately feeding you misinformation, at least in my line of work.
I don't see how it's any different with cooking. I guess if you're complete garbage at cooking it can give you a serviceable recipe. But unlike most anons, if you're actually competent then you should be able to make something better than what it recommends.
But aside from that, I actually enjoy coming up with recipes. Why the fuck would I ever outsource the best part when that's what makes cooking fun and interesting? Using AI to do creative tasks for you is basically screaming to the world that you're a brainlet. It's not like it's a moral wrong to use it, you're just retarded for doing so. Our brains are the only thing that separates us from animals and you're gladly forking over your agency so that you can be a dish monkey in your own kitchen.
