How much glue should I add to my pasta?
You should not add glue to pasta when cooking or serving it. The idea of adding glue, such as Elmer's glue or any craft glue, to pasta is not appropriate for food consumption and is likely a joke or misunderstanding found in some informal discussions.

@grok is this true?

If you prefer instant gratification and "good enough" over robust, verifiable information: be my guest. But it doesn't make you superior. You are not unique, skilled or brave for using LLMs.
I think virtually everyone here has played with them. We've all seen better and worse outputs. You are not unique, you just care less about truth and accuracy.
over robust, verifiable information
Random websites are robust, verifiable information now are they? How times change
30 years ago I was told they are unreliable and to use books in the library for research
20 years ago I was told using WebMD was unreliable, after all it will just say you have cancer laugh out loud! Using the internet for medical information? Crazy!
I wonder where we'll be in 20 or 30 years time

it isn’t reliable for recipes since it hallucinates
This is how it goes:
- Don't use AI
- See memes about AI getting it wrong
- Believe that AI gets it wrong 100% of the time
You guys are just as bad as trump supporters
- Don't have an EV
- See memes about EV's catching on fire
- Believe that EV's catch on fire all the time
8/10
I'm impressed

Lemmy users:
Look out you'll die if you use AI to make some food! Don't even use it for recommendations or ideas or maybe different things you can try or maybe you want to know a way to do a specific thing or try a slight variant because you might drink battery acid by mistake!!!1
What makes you believe I haven't used AI before? I'm well acquainted with it. But it simply isn't a reliable or useful tool for what you want to do with it. You want to make lesson plans or debug code with it, it works well as a sounding board. But you cannot reliably use it for information you don't already have.

There's a firefox extention that filters out everything irrelevant to the recipe. At this point as soon as I open the browser half my ressources go into reverting enshittification.
It was life changing when I realised uBlock Origin can block whatever I want from web pages and not just ads.
All the links at the right of an article, headers and menus that want to continue occupying screen space after I've scrolled down, the entire comments section on some pages. Bam, gone.
Pages with cookie banners that don't have a one-click reject all button? Just block the banner.

time to make a recipe website that hides the recipe in JavaScript, but leaves the story in HTML.
Just make the recipe an image that only appears when you rotate the 3D dog to face
this way -
eh bad take imo, this is one of the few places where AI shines, it's great because you no longer need to go to a recipe website to begin with, you just ask it for a recipe and it gives you one and then you can discuss different variants etc
Agree. I've discovered some good unique gluten free cooking options for my son with AI. I never even knew about Coconut Aminos.

The cruel part is that it was nested somewhere in the story and he scrolled past it just after day one.

Some websites are literally only providing the very top of the article, and if you block the banner you will find that it abruptly ends. In cases like this, you can use archive.ph, though.

Those are put there for SEO purposes. Google favors sites with these big stories. The copyright issue alone doesn't justify what's there; you could do a quick blurb of a few sentences and it would be enough. Plenty of cookbooks do that.
This is why a lot of those sites have a button that says "skip to recipe". It's a bunch of text that's meant to be for robots, not you, and they really don't care if you read it.
Now that it's being created by LLMs, we may have the first known example of human language written by robots and intended for robots. Welcome to a cyberpunk dystopia.

So why not put the recipe first, and the bullshit after?

Holy fuck I needed this in my life

Because that's what computers used to be for. Now we drive engagement.

I've had to explain that to people soooo many times. All those words, all those pics (with alt text), it's just to make the site higher on the search results...

But OP stated that, the text only being there to manipulate SEO, the authors don't really care of you read it. So out it at thd bottom, after the recipe!

Recipe articles are probably the best examples of web content whose only real purpose is ad clicks. All of the text is flavor text, in every sense.

Search engines favor text earlier in the site. Text "above the fold" (the area where you wouldn't have to scroll to see it) is scored higher.

SEO is part of it, but it's also literally just more physical real estate for ads. Recipe sites, including personal recipe blogs, are infamous for the sheer volume of ads placed on them. Yes, everyone just scrolls to the recipe so it kind of doesn't matter, but longer text means more space for ads.
