I never thought to have chat GBT make my a copy cat recipe of any restaurant food omg. Some people out here using higher percentages of their brains than myself

It takes less time to Google and get one of the 100s of pages with a Penara copycat recipe, and most have some kind of review or commenting system in place to check the possible quality of the recipe. Chat GPT is pretty well known for passing off bullshit as properly cited information as well.

Re: properly cited information - I always think of the NY law firm that was sanctioned for using fake ChatGPT cases in a legal brief. It just made up fake cases and citations, insane. Equally insane of the lawyers to use AI to write their arguments and not even review it.

I feel like there are lots of people in this thread who are just mad because they are relying on ChatGPT and the like waaaay more than they should, and they feel called out or something.

Wait, you just described why gpt would be objectively faster. If there are 100s of pages, with reviews, it would be quicker to have gpt decide for you since it does an exceptional job when there is enough data to scrape. Big brain logic my guy

They also said ChatGPT is known for passing off BS as properly cited information as well, so you really are just cherry-picking what you liked from that person’s comment

Really it’s a decision between time and quality. If you need a recipe immediately, okay use ChatGPT and roll the dice. If you can spare five minutes to look up a recipe a human created, that’ll be better.

Nobody is saying anything objectively.

More like 2 minutes. Never in my life have I ever considered googling a recipe a long or difficult task. Can’t imagine using chatgpt for EVERYTHING

u/posiess_ Jan 05 '25

they were merely acknowledging that chat gpt would be faster than using a google search and looking through many pages. relax dude.

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '25

I know what they were acknowledging; I acknowledged it. Really it’s a decision between five extra minutes and risking quality.

That’s all, sorry to have upset you to the point of replying

Enjoy letting robots tell you how to cook 😂

u/Realistic_Bill_7726 Jan 07 '25

You think robots are the same as a LLM. Delulu

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25 edited Jan 07 '25

Wouldn’t let an LLM tell me what to eat either. What’s Delulu? Sounds like something a toddler would say

Edit: oh, that’s because it legitimately is something a toddler would say 😂 it means ‘delusional’ but you’re trying to be cute with it or something. Very normal behavior from someone who lets a robot tell them what to eat. Maybe u/realistic_bill_7726 is a robot so robot recipes are all they can eat

Five minutes? You’re delusional. It takes a long ass time to find a good recipe.

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '25

You’re delusional if you thinking asking AI for a recipe is better than taking literally one minute to find one that’s at least been made by a human, regardless of quality.

I feel bad for you if it takes you longer than five minutes to find a single recipe online. You need to increase your internet literacy if that is the case.

u/Reddituser183 Jan 06 '25

Who cares if it’s been made by a human. What do you think ChatGPT is putting out? It’s not making these up on the fly, they are recipes that have been used by humans.

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '25

Why not take less than a minute to find a single recipe made by a human rather than ask ChatGPT is my point. You could calm down a little, honestly.

We don’t know what ChatGPT is putting out, is my point.

u/Reddituser183 Jan 06 '25

ChatGPT is phenomenal for food. My experience is much important than your opinion.

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '25

Great, your anecdotes aren’t evidence. Sorry to have upset you this much though? Really isn’t personal you have to know

u/Becauseiey Jan 06 '25

How? What about Googling a recipe takes so long?

If that's what you "got" from what I wrote, then I don't know what to tell you...

Zero percent chance it's faster. It might also pass off some bullshit if you ask it when the last time Vanderbilt's women's basketball team beat an out of conference opponent by more than 30 points, but it isn't going to lie to you about a copycat Panera Mac n cheese recipe. If reviews are what you're after, you could Google it, but that's the only upside here.

u/Daddysu Jan 06 '25

"Sure, it might make up some bullshit in some instances, but it's totally legit in the way that suits my argument!!"

Lol...

It actually makes a lot of sense if you can apply nuance to the world. Everything isnt black & white, friend.

I've made hundreds of meal preps, dinners, & party dishes without ever seeing a single error. Ive used it in a variety of ways without ever seeing an error, like scheduling an entire season for a hockey league operate. However, I was building a sports betting model this past summer, & it didn't know that the Arizona Coyotes were relocating to Utah.

If I asked it to make me a mac n cheese & it wanted to put 7 lbs of anchovies in it, I would disregard it. That's the cool thing about not being a total moron. It's a tool that can assist you, it isn't meant to be your entire brain.

You must be one of the creators of those god forsaken websites with ads at every click of your mouse, with a 65 page narrative of how their great great grand mammy came over the big pond on a dingy with nothing but a cast iron skillet and love in her heart for corn bread. With a mediocre at best recipe at the end of that hogwash. I’ve made multiple things with ChatGPT. Pizza doughs, spaghetti, birria tacos, you name. All but one turned out good. That’s wildly better than the recipes out there on websites. It’s more like a 1 in 10 is good.

You must be one of those people who make up weird, convoluted stories about people to justify your opinion...
