Presenting the ultimate culinary challenge: Sorted Food challenges OpenAI‘s chatGPT to mark recipes using a barrage of unusual ingredients.
What happened: Sorted Food, a YouTube channel run by a group of home cooks from London with 2.68 million subscribers, challenged OpenAI’s chatGPT for an ultimate culinary challenge.

The YouTubers asked chatGPT to combine ingredients “that might otherwise be tricky to put together.”
They first picked a series of random ingredients — a protein (minced beef), a vegetable (lettuce), a sauce (fish sauce) and a miscellaneous ingredient (dark chocolate).
The YouTubers then asked chatGPT to “create a recipe” using these ingredients.
The Result: Beef and Dark Chocolate Lettuce Cups with Fish Sauce Dressing
Upon tasting the dish, the final verdict was “for inspiration, tick, for execution, question marks.”
Sorted Food, then tried another dish with random ingredients — protein (crab), dairy (blue cheese), oils (sesame) and miscellaneous (digestive biscuits).
The Result: Hot Blue Cheese and Crab Dip and a Cheesecake
“The thing is horrible actually.”
Clearly, this was a fail, but in chatGPT’s defense, there were some curveballs.
One of the chefs said, “AI is very smart, but the smartest thing it should have said is, 'Don’t Bother.'”

The video had garnered more than 339K views at the time of writing.
When asked what motivated them to try this out, Jamie Spafford from Sorted Food told Benzinga that "our community had been asking us to dig into — to see if ChatGPT or other AI platforms could replace the role of a chef or years of cooking knowledge and help us get dinner on the table quickly and deliciously."
He said there’s “definitely a learning curve” in giving the “right prompts” to ChatGPT. “It's clear that the answer is only as good as the brief you give it, the more specific the better!”
The YouTuber said he believes AI is a “really exciting development” but for now it cannot beat “years of experience and cooking knowledge.”
Why It’s Important: OpenAI’s AI-powered chatbot, chatGPT, has taken the world by storm. While many people are fascinated by this cutting-edge technology, others are worried about its short and long-term impacts.
It signed up its 100 millionth user in February, reaching the milestone in just 64 days after its Nov. 30 launch.
