ok. what evidence is there that LLMs have already solved cooking? how does an LLM today know when something is burning or how to adjust seasoning to taste or whatever. this is total nonsense
It's easy. You can detect if something is burning in many different ways, from compounds in the air, to visual inspection. People with not great smell can do it.
As far as taste, all that kind of stuff is just another form of RLHF training preferences over millions of humans, in situ. Assuming the ingredients (e.g. parsley) tastes more or less the same across supermarkets, it's just a question of amounts, and preparation.
do you know that LLMs operate on text and don't have any of the sensory input or relevant training data? you're just handwaving away 99.9% of the work and declaring it solved. of course what you're talking about is possible, but you started this by stating that cooking is easy for an LLM and it sounds like you're describing a totally different system which is not an LLM
