NYT Cooking app tested AI recipe modification feature

The New York Times is testing an AI feature in its Cooking app that recommends ingredient and cookware substitutions, scales recipes to any serving size, and adjusts for different pots and pans. The feature is currently available to all iOS Cooking subscribers and will roll out more broadly later. Customized recipes are private content and cannot be published or shared. Some readers have expressed concerns about the environmental impact of AI and user experience in the comments section, but the official has stated that an option to disable the feature is not yet provided.
