《纽约时报》正在测试新AI功能，纽约T 烹饪高级编辑Genevieve Ko 宣布上星期五的特写
NYT烹饪应用正在测试AI的食谱修改
有些用户对《纽约时报》的配方在修改AI工具并不感到兴奋。
在文章显示中，一个用户要求使用婴儿菠菜来代替甘蓝，NYT Cooking app功能建议，由于婴儿菠菜会更快地枯萎，所以应当在食谱的后期阶段添加。 Ko 称它也可以改变不同的锅和工具周围的食谱。 自定义的食谱是私人的，不能通过应用程序发布或共享。 NYT正在逐渐推出AI修改功能
一些NYT的读者对这个功能有所退缩，他们援引文章评论部分关于广泛采用AI对环境的影响以及AI功能可能对用户体验产生的普遍影响等关注。 当一个用户询问是否有一种方法可以禁用AI特性时，Ko回答说“现在不是，”并指出该特性“完全可以选择使用”。
称是另一个NYT用户，“我一直喜欢NYT烹饪，却痛心的是
NYT Cooking应用程序首次使用AI, Ko 称它被用来在两年前的食谱中将帝国体积测量转换为量子重量测量，去年增加了一个功能，将食谱转换为原服务大小的一半或两倍。 对新AI功能发布文章的评论已经关闭，这是标准做法：
“关于这篇文章的评论开放了四天，来自厨师的编辑负责回答问题、处理所关切的问题并直接与读者接触。 我们保持了对话的开放，使读者有机会分享反馈和听取团队的意见。 结束对旧文章的评论是泰晤士报的标准做法，我们很高兴看到我们烹饪界的许多成员有兴趣探索这个工具

The New York Times is testing a new AI feature for its Cooking app that helps users to modify recipes, and it’s sparked some drama among users. NYT Cooking senior editor Genevieve Ko announced the feature last Friday, which can be used to recommend substitutions for ingredients and cooking equipment, scale recipes to any number of servings, and “generally make our recipes work for what a cook needs at that moment.”
The NYT Cooking app is testing AI recipe modifications
Some users aren’t exactly thrilled with the New York Times’ recipe tweaking AI tool.
One of the examples given in the article shows a user asking to use baby spinach instead of kale, with the NYT Cooking app feature advising that because baby spinach wilts faster, it should be added during a later step of the recipe. Ko says it can also change the recipes around different pans and tools. Customized recipes are private and can’t be published or shared via the app. The AI modification feature is being rolled out gradually while the NYT monitors how it performs — it’s currently available to all Cooking subscribers on the iOS app, and will be more broadly available “soon.”
Some NYT readers have pushed back against the feature, citing concerns in the article’s comment section around the environmental impact of widespread AI adoption and the general impact that AI features may have on the user experience. When one user asked if there will be a way to disable the AI feature, Ko responded with “No, not at this time,” and noted that the feature is “completely optional to use.”
“Unbelievably disappointing to see,” said another NYT user. “I’ve always loved NYT Cooking and it pains me that the AI mandate has reached what used to be a wonderful and simple collection of recipes and notes from all sorts of different people.”
This isn’t the first time that AI has been used by the NYT Cooking app. Ko says it was used to convert imperial volume measurements to metric weight measurements in recipes two years ago, and a feature was added last year that converts recipes to halve or double the original serving size. The comments on the new AI feature announcement post have since been closed, but NYT spokesperson Jordan Cohen tells The Verge that this is standard practice:
“Comments on this article remained open for four days, with editors from Cooking taking care to answer questions, address concerns and engage directly with readers. We kept that conversation open to give readers a meaningful opportunity to share feedback and hear from the team. Closing comments on older articles is standard practice at The Times so that our moderators can focus on new discussions. We’re pleased to see that many members of our Cooking community are interested in exploring this tool and are already trying it out on our iOS app; they’re reporting good results.”
