Yup, and it hallucinates plenty with dev too, even over basic stuff like an NGINX config.
Given that it hallucinates in particular over measurements/specs/stats, I'd be extremely sceptical of taking a recipe from it, whether that's generated and original or coming from a known source.
Baking requires very specific measurements, the slightest mistake and it won't turn out well in most cases. Again, why go via an LLM and not a search engine to the actual source? It makes zero sense, especially if it only returns text and you can't see what the recipe produces if it's an existing thing.

I believe the argument presented (possibly in a separate thread) was that search engines have degraded to the point where what they show you is worse than LLM output.

There's no such thing as "the actual source" for how to make a type of food.
Alright, but most people aren't looking for accuracy relative to the source material.
They're looking for code that does a specific thing, or food that tastes a certain way.

Possibly because they aren't doing science. They may be doing software development or baking instead.
