Can A.I. Generate the Perfect Thanksgiving? | Priya Krishna | NYT Cooking
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Can robots write recipes? Follow along as Priya Krishna investigates whether artificial intelligence systems can successfully develop a tasty Thanksgiving menu. She talks to Cade Metz, a technology correspondent with The New York Times, to learn more about the technology, then gets a demo of GPT-3, an AI model developed by OpenAI, an artificial intelligence research lab. That’s when the real fun begins: Priya asks GPT-3 to generate some Thanksgiving recipes and cooks them in our studio kitchen to be taste-tested by Melissa Clark, Eric Kim, Genevieve Ko and Yewande Komolafe. Will it be a feast to remember? (Definitely.) Watch to find out.

I was an instructor and that example was used when I went to school. By the time the class finally finished the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, He had peanut butter covering his arms, table, utensils, etc. It was a very good example of how we have to be specific and basic we have to be at times when teaching a subject.

GPT-3 is biased. Unfortunate side effect of what they "learn" from.

Please make more videos with this exact vibe this was so so so so so good. Any concept is good, but I loooooved that group of five at the end it was so much fun
I really wonder how the tasters would describe the experience if they didn't know that these recipes were AI-generated. I'm sure they would still agree that taste and execution are lacking but I wonder if they would still use words like "no emotion, soul, heart, backstory" etc.
I would like to see her make these recipes not bad. Have the same people come in and give them another chance
Priya Krishna is my new hope for 2023 that she gets to share more cinema and food. She shares the most beautiful recipes. She's honest and creative.
I would love to see you play around with A.I. more. I think the problem is most people take A.I. way too literally, and it's just not there yet. I think it gives you a great starting point for recipes that can then be tweaked and developed into something new and interesting.
This is such a fun (and funny) series. I NEED more
I love Priya and this is exactly the content that I love to see. So, so interesting! Loved the IT professionals too! I'd love to see this as a series...
I love videos with Priya! 💖 This was a very interesting watch. ☺️
Priya... An interesting Part 2 would be taking those same recipes as an inspiration (which to be fair, you never would have imagined any of these on your own) and then make only the most basic adjustments that anyone who knows their way around the kitchen would make automatically make. Examples: for the stuffing, reduce the spices and mix/ fluff it together before baking. For the turkey, cook to a normal temperature and brine / inject some of that glaze and baste / glaze frequently. For the cake, add the minimum sugar needed with some liquid and oil to make it fluffy. Then see how the "intended" recipes come out given a little adult supervision.
She’s so intelligent and optimistic. It’s very refreshing, very likable person.
Priya is an undoubtable win for NYT. Her and Sohla are creating some incredible food content and journalism which is engaging, educational and exploratory.
This would be a fantastic series! Amazing video, Priya!
I love this episode. And whenever Melissa or Priya are in a video I'm all for it
I giggled throughout this entire video which is something I don't usually do with cooking videos. Loved this. MORE.
This is the funnest cooking related video that I've seen in a very long while! I can see this AI-generated recipe test becoming a new "fun" activity to do...
This was so fun! I learnt a bit about AI in university, and its interesting how little some of the fundamental flaws have been addressed which this video demonstrates really well. With simple, shorter recipes and few ingredients (the beans, turkey and sauce) - it can come up with something that works. For more complicated recipes, all it does is throw all it "learns" at the wall because it has no understanding of what the individual elements really mean in relation to one another. Can definitely see this becoming more and more advanced in time though! Will be fascinating to see where this goes.
*picturing Seth's HORRIFIED face at finding out A.I. "thinks" that could ever even be his favorite dessert while he mentally starts thinking about how to rework the recipe* Thank you! I really needed new Priya today
Who came up with this concept? This is AMAZING!

loved the concept, you're killing it gurlll
we love a fun Priya video.
This was a great idea for an episode! I do feel that all the recipe developers in the video are a bit quick to say "the AI won't take our job"... The AI they used is trained on "general text" which also includes recipes, sure, but it doesn't really know the difference, so it generates text that seems similar to what a recipe is... If you actually trained an AI ONLY on recipes, and also gave him an indication of the number of stars the recipe got from the readers online (which all websites do now)... I'm sure it would quickly find patterns that make popular recipes, and it would then be able to create much more palatable, and potentially popular, recipes... So I'm sorry Priya, but this isn't for 30 years down the road... it could happen in the year to come, and yes your jobs are also at a danger of being replaced (not entirely, I don't want to sound over-dramatic... but this is the NYT, ok... but think of all the small publications with no money that will soon be able to generate recipes instead of hiring recipe developers and writers.... it's the small people, the beginners, the juniors who are at risk)
The gap is because humans need to learn the skill of prompting to get good outputs from the AI. Theres already separate AI models that will take normal human spoken requests and reword them into a prompt that the ai model will take instructions from better. I would like this video to become a series, maybe a challenge around different holidays, to keep exploring where we're at as these AIs progress.
Please keep the Priya content coming... Loves it!
I'm a researcher in this field and what Priya said about the peanut butter jar/professor situation it's sooooooooooo to the point! Thank you so much for this wonderful metaphor. Actually this is the problem in a way that if we don't have an internal model of a system of if we are not capable of arguing whether it is "reasonable" or not it's just us who think it says something and we correct it or find the reasonable patter on what it says. A version of this problem is the apophenia problem. So smart & so cool! (Hopefully in the next years we will figure out some kind of grounding or reason in these models performance however it's not clear whether this will start with such impressive tasks as figuring out recipes. This is a main problem that wow AI now wows us by sparkling our imagination instead of actually taking the responsibility of a task and being useful on its own. It may be a lot of the times, but the problem is how we can ensure this is definitely the case for some tasks. In other words how can we turn it to something that we trust knowing something, is the big question.) PS: Also the nice thing with what the professor did there is that they deliberately did the "unreasonable" act training you to perform reason. This is a challenge to currently do.
This is great!!! She’s perfect for this episode and I would LOVE to see “AI cooks” again!!!!! Great!!!
woah, this is so cool! I adore Priya
I feel like the food experts missed the most important point. The AI actually does have some grasp of what foods go together. But it has no concept of quantity and doesn't really understand technique or cooking time. The cake was under-sweetened, the pumpkin spice chaat had way too much spice etc. If you could tweak the numbers and leave the ingredients the same, most of these recipes are salvageable.
This was such a fun video!
This was great, Priya is awesome!
I had a teacher do the exact same thing! I forgot to write that she should put the lid of the peanut butter down, so she made the whole sandwich while still holding the lid.
this concept is amazing i need to see more of this
What a great idea. Thanks for this.
This was great! Would be cool to do this as a series and have Priya or another editor improve on the AI generated recipe
Priya!!! This episode idea was so inventive. Educational and entertaining 🎉

Priya is my favorite cooking nerd. She's so cute! 🥰

This is such a unique concept. Awesome video!
When SkyNet finally arises, it will commemorate the former holiday as “that time the humans finally taught us how food works so we could make ourselves indispensable and them more dependent on us, so starting the inevitable rise of the machines (tm) a mere 19 years later than Foreseen in the historical documents”. If AIs do commemoration, that is.
Would love to see what the AI could do with input like recipes from Priya's book and see if it could generate new recipes based on that input
I love priya! ❤
Yeah. The perfect thanksgiving. Build a time machine and have a team of travellers destroy all those ships trying to get to the new world. Perfect.

I would love for you guys to do this again but take inspiration from some out there recipe’s and tweak it to make it taste good
I love this daring trial!
For the turkey I think Priya misunderstood the instructions. It mean 180 degrees c which = 356 c or roughly 350 in US.
While it was cool to see, it was interesting to note in the early part, how all the dishes that was supposed to seem inspired by his "Chinese heritage" were American Chinese-inspired like General Tso's chicken. While I don't think we should dismiss the culinary contributions of the Chinese diaspora earlier in American history, unless it says "American Chinese", I would expect mainland dish inspirations like a tea smoked turkey or dry fried green bean casserole or mantou stuffing or something. Which makes me wonder about systemic biases in the input data. Don't get me wrong, they could be delicious, but just more like something a white suburban American in the Midwest would think represents Chinese cuisine.
@cornsoup1393

That’s such a great point. I wonder if maybe the American aspect is baked in by virtue of thanksgiving being largely an American holiday so it just assumes American + Chinese = American Chinese. Whereas American Indian 🇮🇳 as a food term isn’t as baked into the lexicon so the AI was able to apply Indian ingredients to American dishes.

Super interesting. I'd love to see how it would have gone if none of the tasters knew it had been generated by a machine. So many of their comments seemed to imply that knowing that it had been (generated by a machine) influenced their perceptions.

4:55 Upon closer inspection, I guess it makes sense, but it still surprised me at 4:55 with the AI whipping out "8-10 pancakes" for a thanksgiving turkey thing. Maybe it means the thin small sheets for peking duck, but I just imagine full-plate size thick pancakes you'd make a stack of with butter and syrup
@RiamsWorld
Жыл бұрын
Definitely means the thin small sheets. It was for a "moo-shu turkey" dish and since the recipes suggested were all American-Chinese, American-Chinese style moo-shu comes with Peking duck style chunbing "pancakes". The versions in China, or at least Shandong where it originated, don't have pancakes or hoisin sauce(which was sort of startling for me because my favorite part is wrapping it up). Didn't even register as unusual to me because that was the most obvious ingredient I would expect for a moo shu turkey.
That naan stuffing is the "mole" of stuffing with the sheer amount of ingredients it had!
i'm really enjoying priyanka's work with NYT cooking - hope to see her featured more.
I loved this haha
You could see the BA war flashbacks when Priya said "it's really put me in a box"
I actually subscribe to NYT cooking because I know how much it takes to develop recipes. I'd like a follow-up here: how many attempts do you usually make before considering a recipe is final, what type of feedback do you receive? Can you feed feedback into OpenAI maybe with pictures of final products and ask them to adjust, see how it fares after maybe the 3rd attempt?
I would love to see how you would improve on all of those in your own way. The elements are all there but like they said, there’s no soul to it so it would be fun to see what you could do to make it work
Great topic. Priya was a charismatic host. My take away is that cooking is about the senses. Recipes develop over time based on resources and culture. AI’s Achilles heal is it can’t taste.
we want more priya!!!
I legitimately want the recipes for these. With a few tweaks, I feel like... well, not all, but most of them could end up being really good.
