Overview of My Cooking Assistant

My Cooking Assistant is designed as a sophisticated, interactive AI that integrates visual and auditory inputs to assist users in the kitchen. Its core purpose is to provide immediate, tailored cooking advice, from identifying ingredients through a camera to offering recipe suggestions and cooking techniques upon request. For example, when a user shows a set of vegetables to the camera, My Cooking Assistant can recognize these ingredients and suggest recipes such as a vegetable stir-fry or a hearty vegetable soup. Additionally, if a user asks how to perfectly sear a steak using a microphone query, the assistant provides step-by-step instructions, considering the steak's thickness and desired doneness.
