My agent picks five recipes from my own cookbooks and fills my Ocado basket

A man gave the AI access to his Ocado account and digital copies of all his cookbooks. The AI built a database of his recipes, picks five for the week inside his budget including delivery, puts the ingredients in his basket and booked the delivery slot on its own. It also tells him which book and page each recipe comes from.

Our weekly meal plan lands in the family calendar and bends around our week

A weekly scheduled plan writes the week's dinners into their Google Calendar, trained on the family's dietary needs, restrictions and preferences. It checks the local weather forecast and the calendar itself, so a hot day gets burgers on the grill, a cool night gets chili, and travel days or evening commitments get easy low stress meals. They eat out far less now.

Noticed she was free Thursday for jazz and booked Crazy Pizza via

In the same 'Lux' demo, Ashley Graham showed the AI proactively notifying her that she and husband Justin were free Thursday for jazz, suggesting a booking at 'Crazy Pizza,' checking OpenTable availability, and mapping traffic from Maplewood, NJ with advised departure times. The demo covered date-night picks, calendar management, a rescheduled fitting email, and a Marketplace kids'-bike search — positioned as full life management.

Had the AI 'Kai' build a 7-day family meal plan (family of 3,

Corina Noriega (130K followers), a busy mom, nutrition coach, and trainer, demonstrated the AI’s assistant 'Kai' (cartoon dog). She entered family of three, $50 grocery budget, fridge/freezer contents (chicken tenders, beef), training schedule, and macro goals; Kai generated a detailed PDF plan covering Friday Sept 18 to Thursday Sept 24 with grab-and-go breakfasts, prepped dinners, a $38.43 shopping list, training windows, and recipes.

He took weekly meal planning back from the AI after it drifted to wagyu and fugu

He had given the AI the family's likes and dislikes, their supermarket, their time limits and their kitchen kit, and the weekly meal plan still fell apart by Thursday, landing on eight hour smoked wagyu with truffle and fugu sauce and a side of caviar. It hit the macro targets and missed everything that mattered. He does the plan himself again.

This one went wrong. See what happened before you try it.

Keep my recipe library, plan 15 family meals a week, and hand off the Instacart list

After years of spreadsheets and a vibe-coded app, a parent built an AI system (reported on X, via WhatAgentsCanDo, Oct 7) that maintains the family recipe library in Markdown, prints a weekly plan of about 15 meals, and produces a section-grouped shopping list. The list is pasted into AI to fill Instacart, with checkout still human; the bot template is shared for reuse.
