Artificial intelligence is usually praised for its ability to simplify some of the most complex activities, from coding to medical diagnosis, scientific research and even creative writing. However AI tools also continue to reshape how we approach daily mundane tasks, often saving us time and effort.
Cooking with AI: Whipping Up Meals from Fridge Ingredients
Gone are the days of rummaging through the fridge, wondering what to cook with the ingredients in your house. AI-powered tools have emerged as valuable kitchen assistants, offering creative solutions when we need them most.
Chatgpt, one of the most prominent AI platforms, is the tool most people have turned to for meal ideas not only for step-by-step instructions when they don’t know how to prepare a certain food but also when they are out of creative ideas with limited ingredients.
For fancier individuals who want this task even more simpler, there are smart fridges with the same AI capabilities.
Such as the Samsung 2024 Bespoke 4-Door Flex Refrigerator with AI Family Hub Plus, which uses a camera to take a look inside your refrigerator and then recommends a "curated feed of recipes that incorporate the ingredients you already have with your preferences, desires and situational needs", Samsung said.
The AI then sifts through thousands of recipes to suggest meals that can be made using those items. This not only minimises food waste but also encourages culinary creativity
Some of the prompts you can include are a nutritional breakdown analysis, dietary preferences or restrictions and even a breakdown of calorie estimations, based on your health needs.

For those who wish to cut down on grocery shopping time, or not suffer from decision fatigue when shopping, you can also prompt Chatgpt to create a grocery list based on your meal ideas and preferable budget.

Working out with AI
The kitchen is not the only place that AI tools can be utilised to make life a little easier. Fitness bunnies and people who wish to tap into a more physically fit lifestyle have also turned to Chatgpt for assistance.
Personalisation is key in this realm because as much as you can easily get a workout plan from a single google search, sometimes it’s not easy to find one that is perfectly tailored to your personal fitness needs.
Entering foundational information such as your fitness level, preferences, and specific goals, whether it’s weight loss, muscle gain, or improving endurance, allows the AI to craft a customised workout plan that may evolve according to your progress.
This particular Tiktok user went as far as prompting Ghatgpt to create a workout plan that will have him looking like famous designer Rich Mnisi, in a couple of weeks.
@chawezi.banda Replying to @zuuri_ ChatGPT is now my personal trainer. So far the workouts have been good but a little too intense. I might ask it to change the workout routine for me to make it a bit easier. #chatgpt #workoutroutine #workoutplan #uni #studentlife ♬ original sound - Chawezi’s public diary
Travelling with AI
Another life hack that Chatgpt can unlock is a curated travel itinerary. Instead of going back and forth on various websites when planning to explore a travel destination, you can prompt the AI tool to provide you with an itinerary that includes your interests, a timeframe and a budget to stick to.
Tiktok user Madison Rolley was super specific in her prompts, asking Chatgpt to include means and cost of travel, estimated cost of stay per night, average cost of meals and 3 tourist attractions with their associated costs.
