The AI ordered a recipe's groceries by voice while he cared for his sick family

With his wife and two kids sick, he used AI connected to his recipe database and Instacart to order the ingredients for a recipe from Safeway by voice. The groceries were at his door in about 30 minutes.

How it works

  1. He names the recipe out loud
  2. The AI pulls the ingredients from his recipe database
  3. It orders them from Safeway through Instacart
  4. The groceries arrive in about 30 minutes

Why it’s worth knowing

No list, no typing. He said a recipe name out loud and food showed up while he stayed with his family.
