It focusses on the sensational-sounding part of this, the implication that people will blindly take these recipes and make them and eat them and then die. Clearly that is not going to be the outcome here.
But if you peel away the (false) angle that exists just for clicks on the article, there is a real story here. One that we all already know and understand, especially as technologists, but is worth talking about anyway because it's interesting:
It's that these "AI" products (the LLMs they're based on) _cannot reason like a human with common sense can_. They're not even close. That doesn't mean they're not amazing technology, but now that the technology has been applied to products, that limitation becomes more obvious.
It's kind of a boring aspect of AI to talk about, particularly compared to "AI creates recipes that will kill you!!!". But it's really the root of this story, and it's not nothing.
