Apr. 27th, 2022 11:55 pmAnn Reardon is a delight in general. She's a food scientist who is famed on the internet for her debunking of various internet hacks and videos about channels like Five-Minute Crafts (which has given me a disinformation talking point: non-political disinformation exists), but she does other cooking things online too, and now she's gone and baked an AI generated cake recipe, which you can watch here. This was just too good not to share; I laughed so hard at the cake recipe. Like so much AI stuff, it reads like it was written by someone who kind of had the idea of cake, but no practical experience with it.
And the cake manages to be notably easier on her kitchen than the internet food hacks; at no point is there an explosion all over the inside of her microwave. (It is a running gag in the debunking videos that they are very rough on her microwave and she always winds up having to spend a lot of time cleaning out the inside of it, sometimes multiple times if she needs to try something with several different starting conditions.)
It is super funny; go check it out.
