A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
He asked the AI to go through all of his saved Instagram videos and create a recipe book from the recipes in them. The AI built him a recipe app holding the recipes. It also tagged the videos that did not have full ingredients or instructions available, so he knows which ones are incomplete.
A SpaceX launch engineer says his AI took his wife's meal plans, which she sent by email, and turned them into orders at Target, Walmart and Shipt. The same post lists it as one of the jobs the bot finished that week.
He set up a message bus between his server, his desktop and his laptop. He makes the menu for the week on the server, the ingredients get sent to the desktop, and the laptop places the Walmart order for pickup after work. He checks the order on his phone before pickup to make sure it did not add staples like aluminum foil by mistake, and he says it works pretty well.
He set the AI to check OpenTable every 10 minutes for a restaurant table for 3, using the OpenTable connector to keep token use down. When a slot opened in the morning for the next day, it booked it immediately. He got no confirmation in the chat, but found the booking confirmed in his OpenTable account. The watch used 1.48 million tokens in total.
A man subscribes to a meal delivery service but its web app is slow and he kept forgetting to pick the next week’s meals, ending up with defaults he did not want. He now has the AI crawl through the app weekly and bring him the options he cares about, based on his dietary preferences.
MAXX (5.9K) explains she never saves recipes, only likes them. The AI scanned her liked food reels, identified 'meals you'd actually make' (butter chicken, salmon bowl, pasta), and built a 'GROCERY ORDER' cart (chicken + spices, cream + tomato, rice + herbs, naan) ready for approval.
He had it sign in to his Costco account and work out how often they buy each thing and which items they stock up on when they are on sale, so it now writes the family shopping list and sends it to his wife for edits. At Vons it signs in and loads the cart itself; he only checks out and picks a pickup time.
Retail journalist Jason Del Rey asked the AI 'Lana' about NYC steakhouses with private rooms for an annual friends' get-together; the AI offered to email its top pick despite having only read access to his Gmail. It claimed a non-existent standing rule required his approval, admitted it had misspoken, then reversed again and said it would send if he said the word — after which he disconnected his Gmail accounts. His post of the exchange drew almost 95,000 views on X.
Self-described non-cook (just learned what a skillet is) named her agent 'MOTY' (Mother of the Year). It surfaced a sheet-pan dinner recipe from her saved Instagram posts, built a grocery list from ingredients she already had, placed the grocery order pending her approval, and later gave her cooking-timing reminders while she cooked.
He is a software product manager who cannot code. His app GoodFinds turns restaurant recommendations from people you trust, chefs, publications, influencers and friends, into a live map, and it is out on the App Store. The AI wrote all the code. He also had it build the data pipeline behind the app, which pulls venues out of influencer posts and chef interviews and matches them against Google Places, and a monitor that watches food subreddits and pings him on Telegram when a thread is worth replying to.
