Chef Dalle: Transforming Cooking with Multi-Model Multimodal AI

In an era where dietary habits significantly impact health, technological interventions can offer personalized and accessible food choices.This paper introduces Chef Dalle, a recipe recommendation system that leverages multi-model and multimodal human-computer interaction (HCI) techniques to provide personalized cooking guidance. The application integrates voice-to- text conversion via Whisper and ingredient image recognition through GPT-Vision. It employs an advanced recipe filtering system that utilizes user-provided ingredients to fetch recipes, which are then evaluated through multi-model AI through integrations of OpenAI, Google Gemini, Claude, and/or Anthropic APIs to deliver highly personalized recommendations. These methods enable users to interact with the system using voice, text, or images, accommodating various dietary restrictions and preferences. Furthermore, the utilization of DALL-E 3 for generating recipe images enhances user engagement. User feedback mechanisms allow for the refinement of future recommendations, demonstrating the system’s adaptability. Chef Dalle showcases potential applications ranging from home kitchens to grocery stores and restaurant menu customization, addressing accessibility and promoting healthier eating habits. This paper underscores the significance of multimodal HCI in enhancing culinary experiences, setting a precedent for future developments in the field.
