Generating weird cooking recipes with TensorFlow
I get that this was just a toy, but naturally I wanted to think through how to make it useful. Like imagining building a real car from lego.<p>I know very little about machine learning or cooking or chemistry in general. How would one make this actually useful and interesting?<p>My guess is you would need to provide a lot more context to the database. Things like chemical composition seem like the most fundamental component of recipes.<p>Backwards planning from the composition, you could teach it actions that generate those chemicals such as methods of cooking, and the source foods that provide the building blocks i.e. ingredients.<p>Then at some point you could link it back to the recipes to create standardized instructions for generating certain chemical patterns.<p>Does that sound like the right way to make this more realistic?
