One of the first tests I gave ChatGPT when it came out was to see what kind of recipes it could come up with. It's a popular use for the AI chatbot, as "what should I eat tonight?" is a perennial source of stress for many people.
Oddly, though, based on nothing but my request for a recipe involving certain ingredients or styles of cooking, ChatGPT somehow decided I was afraid of flavor. The AI seemed to assume my spice rack contained nothing spicier than tap water. Grilled chicken with no seasoning, pasta with nothing but olive oil, it was a menu designed to put my palate to sleep.
