Basically no one is using AI agents for their DoorDash orders

I use AI like a mad man to find what I need on Amazon or other websites.

For example, got a new washing machine, had to find adapters, it is so easy to have it find it for me, and then show me a few options. And understand what I need.

Just had it search for bubble wrap and break down what is most cost effective and gets it to me in 2 to 3 days. So easy, and got me off Amazon.

Food? No way, Food is a pleasure if I am ordering it and a splurge. I don't need a machine to help me pick out what taste good. Maybe translate some things if I'm struggling in that language.

A chef drives over and makes a homemade meal. Healthy eating could be insurance-subsidized.

You can likely increase healthy eating if you tax food and 100% of taxes go toward subsidizing veggies (frozen and fresh), beans, and real food.

Those sort of basic staples are already pretty cheap, I don't think it's price that makes them the less popular choice.
