Sam Nadler [7:04]: Yeah. I mean, I love it. I mean, a couple weeks ago, we discussed how I use just ChatGPT to kinda monitor calories and kind of guide me through my dietary choices later in the day, and, I think combining that, my kind of, fitness tracker, calorie counter with these recipes based on, the diet I like and the actual food I have, is a really powerful combination. How did you, like, guide AI, I'm assuming you're using OpenAI, into, like that it's just not combining random ingredients, that it's actually, like, a thoughtful, good tasting recipe?
Jordan Metzner [7:45]: Yeah. So I can't recall my original prompt, but I really tried to focus it on a high end professional chef that was cooking Mediterranean meals using, like, olive oil and avoiding French diet, like, kind of high in fat, like butters and things like that. I don't recall if I told it, like, a specific chef that I favored the most, but I really just try to focus on healthy Mediterranean diet and creativity in the kitchen. And you can kinda see that. Our AI chef creates high end healthy Mediterranean recipes that transform everyday ingredients into extraordinary meals. I think my prompt has like some flavor of that in it. But, yeah, I mean, if you had your, if you love a certain chef, then you could probably use that in your prompt to generate more creative instructions. It also probably would work really well to generate kind of kids meals, especially if your kids had, like, certain, types of favorite foods or least favorite foods. You could also include things like gluten free or low salt or, if you had certain type of dietary restrictions, you could add that in. So you can imagine, you had some medical restrictions in your family where, one person doesn't eat gluten and one person can't have high salt and, one person is trying to stay away from sugars or, something like that.
Jordan Metzner [9:08]: And you can put in kind of everything you buy at the supermarket and, you could spit out a recipe that, could meet all of the requirements of everybody who's eating with you. And then on top of that, I think, like, as you mentioned, you could get the output of calories, macros, micros, and, how much protein, etcetera. So, and then probably there's, like, an output at the end that could say, like, if you like this meal, I could tell you what to order again next time you go to the supermarket. Right? So you could probably kinda build a whole full circle all the way around. So hopefully, that gives a little insight into the Ryz Chef tool.
