    You’re nitpicking a specific instead of the argument, I don’t care if you can do it better than chatGPT.

    And if you want to focus on the detail, then do it well. If I used this exemple, it’s because I was in this exact situation. A student with ONLY a ricecooker. Only as in only a ricecooker, no pan no stovetop. Of course you can do better than a ricecooker, but I’m not allowed to. So I asked chatgpt, it said that it wasn’t a good idea, I pushed on, and it gave me a recipe that worked ok. Not great, but I knew it beforehand, it told me so. So I ate an ok pumpkin cake and was happy, which wasn’t possible with a cookbook.

    (And I know how rice cookers work, technology explained made a great video on them)

      The bloody argument is that ChatGPT can’t deal with the specifics in question. I don’t doubt that it can get lucky and spit out something sensible. What I’m saying is that it’s a very bad idea to rely on it to master a topic. I mean if it was so good why did you even go to university? Why not have ChatGPT teach you? Exactly the same thing.

      Also why the hell would you have a ricecooker and no stove, not even a single plate. Are you going to fry up stuff to eat with the rice in the cooker? Did ChatGPT have the guts to tell you that you’re living the life of a modern-day barbarian and sentence you to eat rice with rice until you relent and get a hot plate and/or an oven? Air fryer? Anything that’s not soggy? Or venture out to your neigbours and see if they have something at least half-way appropriate?

        ChatGPT is better than what you seems to think, the pumpkin cake was ok. I live in a 7m2 room and we have inspection every few month that check if we have a freezer, heating plate, stovetop, heater or anything that can use too much electricity. Ricecooker and microwave are barely ok. You can insult me all you want, it’s not like I have the choice.

          You living in a Gulag doesn’t mean that ChatGPT is the right way to learn to bake, now you’re getting into nitpicking and specifics. Also that restriction is bullshit or do they also confiscate hair dryers, those easily eat 2kW.
