My Dot found the risotto recipe and filled my Instacart cart

PCMag asked all three agents to find a named risotto recipe, match its ingredients to what a local Wegmans stocks, and load them into Instacart. Once the reviewer linked his Instacart account, the Dot found the recipe, matched the ingredients and filled the cart without a hitch, while the AI needed his password and a login code and added saffron nobody asked for.

How it works

  1. Link the Instacart account
  2. Find the J. Kenji López-Alt no-stir risotto recipe
  3. Match each ingredient to versions stocked at the local Wegmans
  4. Load them into the Instacart cart

Why it’s worth knowing

It was the only one of the three agents that finished the shop cleanly. The others stalled on logins or froze.
