NYT Cooking’s AI assistant saved my weeknight chicken, but almost ruined my cake

The author tested the AI-powered tool on NYT Cooking, which uses user comments and provides practical substitutions and solid cooking guidance. The tool was helpful in deciding on dinner and saving a weeknight chicken recipe, but almost ruined a cake recipe. The author is skeptical about the tool's ability to provide good results, citing previous experiences with AI-generated recipes. The tool is available to subscribers on iOS only at launch.
