> AI or not, ordering any food delivered takes time to deal with and collect.

It is few taps in an app and going out for it when it arrives. Literally. And while you are at work anyway. Cooking, shopping and packing take more time - and at the time when you could have been doing something more pleasurable (like chilling with netflix).

Only when framed that way. Different strokes for different folks. Some people actually enjoy cooking. Being in the room and providing for people. Thinking about the recipe and how it came out this time vs last time, and what to change next time to make it just so. Being taken to a Michelin star restaurant is an experience that I will never forget.

For me cooking is meditative enough that it can be included in "chilling with netflix". :D
