- AI tried to kill my dog.
Do you know what AI is? Well, let me tell you.
I don't wanna boast,
but it stands for artificial intelligence.
And I know you already knew that, but basically,
it's a little person that lives inside your computer
that you don't need to feed,
you don't need to give 'em water, they don't need to sleep.
They're always there, and it scares me.
And don't get me wrong, I'm sure AI can and will be useful,
but I've just seen way too many '80s and '90s movies
that's gonna change my mind right now.
However, thank you.
Yesterday, AI helped me.
We had a bit of banter, a bit of conversation going on.
Helped me come up with a five-ingredient starter, a main,
and dessert, and to keep it old school, I printed it off.
It even helped me come up
with some video title suggestions which were awful.
Unleashing the chef within,
AI's gourmet three-course challenge.
I am not calling the video that.
Howdy computer, please give me a recipe
for a five-ingredient starter with a little kiss on the end.
I always put a kiss on the end of stuff.
Gets a bit awkward with the mother-in-law, to be honest.
And then it fires out this recipe
for garlic Parmesan baked mushrooms.
And I was like, do you know what?
I love mushrooms but the internet hates them.
However, that does sound blooming awesome.
I'm gonna give it a try.
I mean, the internet doesn't hate them.
It's just people seem to freak out
when I use mushrooms in videos, you know what I mean?
I guess they aren't, dad joke warning, funghis.
But then AI replied that, you know,
it's just all about personal choice.
"And I must admit, your 'funghi' joke
gave me a good chuckle."
Did I just make AI laugh?
End of the day, we got a nice, potentially,
baked garlic mushroom Parmesan starter,
and that is what we are indeed starting with.
All right, so first three ingredients.
These are some baby mushrooms,
and it says to slice them into even sizes,
but the mushrooms are kind of the same anyway.
Three tablespoons of melted butter. Ooh!
And these are some garlic cloves
so I'm just gonna mix that round together to evenly coat it.
Preheat the oven.
AI, I think they've got that in some ovens now
where you can like, obviously just use like smartphone ones
where you can be like, hey, AI,
we're doing that recipe we talked about.
I like pressing the buttons.
Don't get me wrong, if we can get AI to wash up for us
and we've all got our own little C-3PO around our house
or maybe, my God, Pat.
Come on Pat, come do the washing up. Come on, as a joke.
But this is the thing with AI, if I was doing this recipe,
I probably wouldn't even say to do it in a bowl
'cause I'm gonna do it in two mini baking dishes.
But if you're doing it in one mega one,
just push 'em in there straight away, in my opinion.
I think I just rebelled. I feel a bit like that...
Is it Kyle Reese from "Terminator?"
I mean it doesn't help that Mrs. B looks like Sarah Connor,
but that's another thing.
Just got some freshly grated Parmesan,
sprinkling that right on top.
"Terminator 2," though, such a great film.
I go on about "Back to the Future" a lot,
and I love that film, but "Terminator 2"
is also one of my favourites.
15 to 20 minutes, apparently. I just...
This whole thing just makes me feel like one day AI's fine
and then in like 10 years my AI postman's gonna come in
and be like, "I need your clothes,
your boots, and your spatula."
Uh, uh, yeah. Anyhow, enough about the end of the world.
The final ingredient is just some freshly chopped parsley
simply to garnish it so I'll get that done.
But AI can't smell and we can.
Well, you can't, but I can and I can confirm
that it smells absolutely gorgeous and crusted on there, ah!
And then some of that freshly chopped parsley on top,
and 'cause it's warm it'll probably just sort
of wilt on there a little bit.
I'm gonna try one of these right now.
Serve as a tasty appetiser.
Mmm! Oh, you can really the butter on there.
The mushrooms are super tender.
The parsley's doing a little bit,
but the flavour is in the butter and the garlic.
That is blooming nice. Right, main course.
Hey chum! Hey, buddy, how it going?
This time a main meal, perhaps with chicken.
'Cause I've heard that you can go,
"I've got these ingredients.
Make me something with this," and it will do it.
And it smashed out this chicken and broccoli stir fry.
And I was like, (sighs) chicken and broccoli stir fry
just seems a bit too meh and not like a meal.
Can we do something a bit more filling?
It chucked out a chicken and vegetable skillet
which again sounded all right, but then I had to, you know,
bring AI back in and be like, come on now,
going by my specific 4321 rules,
even with the five ingredients,
that is too many ingredients on that recipe anyway.
Can you give me something to really pack it out?
You know, like pasta or rice or potatoes.
Was I actually feeding AI? No pun intended.
There I was saying like, no, give me the potatoes there.
No? Work with me.
"Absolutely, bro!"
And it gave me this one with this like,
chicken Alfredo kind of vibe.
And I've touched on this recently.
I find that chicken Alfredo is quite an American thing,
like the Alfredo sauce.
It's not really something I can easily get here.
Look, I know you're the Terminator,
but it's a bit too American for me.
So then it gives me the chicken and potato bake,
the recipe we are gonna try.
And I read that and I was thinking, "Do you know what?
You're my slave.
Can you change the instructions to be a UK version?"
Sorry for the confusion, mate.
And then they write out the new instructions
in English form-ish.
Anything else I can help you with? Um, maybe dessert.
I'm just gonna go have a breather. This is really awkward.
Right, let's make a chicken bake.
First thing is some potatoes peeled and cut into wedges.
So we got wedges of four potatoes.
And if I wasn't following this recipe, personal choice,
I would've just washed it and kept the skin on, I like it.
So I've just pat dried the starch off of these
with a bit of kitchen towel.
The AI recipe doesn't tell me to do that.
And I love the fact that in the future
maybe we will have these like, headsets or something
or headband or not neck bands.
That's running, man.
If you do something wrong, AI is absolutely,
"Ah, no! Naughty human."
I know I may be overthinking it, but there were people
that on the 1999 New Year's Eve into the 2000 millennium
that were paid a lot of money to stay up to make sure
that the world didn't end
because of the digital clocks on computers and stuff.
Some people spent that New Year's Eve in bunkers.
What I'm saying as we add in the garlic and the onion,
people have been scared of a lot less things.
This is some thyme.
It says to do a teaspoon, but I feel like adding
a little bit more than that, maybe double.
The last thing is some olive oil. All those specks of thyme.
I think thyme is one of my favourite herbs.
The garlic's in there somewhere.
And of course the potatoes,
they look like they've just been rolling round in grass,
having a great time.
Just need a fairly even platform for the chicken to sit on.
We've got four chicken thighs with the skin on and bone in.
You guys have told me in the past
the bone-in thighs actually generate more flavour.
A lot like before, we shimmy on some more thyme.
It's chicken thyme.
And some olive oil just to help stick that on there.
(oven beeping) There we go.
Oh, and my oven is just ready. That is perfect timing.
The juices from the chicken as it cooks
are gonna seep into the potatoes too.
Ah! In it goes.
Finally, for the dessert,
we come up with a chocolate raspberry tart,
and in brackets, enhanced.
And that might be because I encouraged
the AI to get creative.
Okay my friend, last one then I'll never talk to you again.
Give me a five-ingredient dessert
to wow my guests that are coming over.
Just joking, there are no guests, just a pug,
but it is the thought that counts.
Make it gourmet, baby.
And it came up with this chocolate raspberry tart.
It's quite intense 'cause it just chucks the steps at you.
You're like, uh, uh, okay.
Couldn't I put the raspberry in with the sauce at all?
And it's like, oh yeah, absolutely.
Adding the raspberries to the chocolate sauce
will give it a lovely raspberry flavour.
So it completely redoes its recipe for me,
allowing me to put the raspberries that we're buying,
which we'll also garnish, into the sauce.
And I was like, "That's pretty cool."
Then I noticed one of the last steps said,
"Slice and serve the chocolate raspberry tart to your pug
or indulge in it yourself."
So, (laughs) see, I think we've enhanced it there.
And I love the mention of the pug,
but I think this would possibly kill him. (laughs)
"You're absolutely right,
it's important to prioritise the well-being of your pug.
Chocolate can be toxic for dogs."
All right, so we've got some cookies here,
and raspberries are actually fine for dogs,
but I do believe with chocolate,
(grinder whirring)
the darker the chocolate is the worse it is for a dog,
and it suggested dark chocolate.
There's my video title, "AI Tried to Kill My Dog."
In comes some melted butter.
Now I'm gonna go against the AI here.
I wanna try and create a bit of a crust on it.
So if I'm just gonna shimmy this round a minute,
it'll just form a bit of a crust up the sides, okay?
All right, amazing. I'm gonna shove that in the fridge.
All right, so that is chilling.
It might be in my internet fridge,
AKA the freezer, but that's up to you.
Just don't doubt AI.
So we've got some double cream here. Shove that down.
And if you haven't worked it out already, we are making,
we might have read it on the screen, a chocolate ganache
so I just need to get some chocolate ready.
And of course we're gonna enhance it with raspberries
that I suggested, which if it made the recipe fail,
that'd be amazing, but I genuinely think it's gonna be good.
Pouring it straight on. We also add in the raspberries.
Now, this is only a quarter of the raspberries I've got.
The rest is gonna go for the garnish.
Stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted
and the mixture is smooth.
Well, I don't know how smooth it's gonna be
'cause we've got like, lumps of raspberry in there,
and it didn't tell me to whiz it up.
So on the next step it is referring it to
as our raspberry-infused chocolate ganache, blimey.
Oh, that is amazing! My word!
Pie crust has firmed up.
Oh my gosh, I can see chunks of raspberry in this,
little pockets of flavour.
Chill it for at least an hour to set.
Right, let's get that in a fridge and get the chicken out.
(pot holder taps table)
Holy shamoley, all the juices have mingled in.
Oh, oh, oh my gosh! Oh!
I'm gonna drain most of it off, though,
'cause I just got a feeling
that those potatoes will go really soggy.
And to be honest, it's not the worst thing
for it to get soggy in at all, but I want them to be firm.
But for sure, let that separate,
skim off the fat and make a gravy from it,
and then you're gonna elevate that.
If it is good as it smells, this has done well.
So the internet fridge did a very good job on this,
and I'm just gonna put some raspberries on it for now
but stick it back in the actual fridge now, just to bring it
to a better temperature so it doesn't cling to the tin.
But that is ready to go.
I'd love to dust icing sugar on it, but how easy was that?
Actually, I might be able to get it out.
Oh, there we go. Oh!
Ah. (laughs)
That looks amazing!
All righty, so back to this chicken thing,
which is still warm.
Oh, the chicken is crispy, it's tender,
juicy, and cooked through.
Mmm, mmm, that is absolutely fine.
Just comfort food, filling, just that tender, juicy chicken.
The flavor's running through there.
The support of the thyme-scattered potatoes.
I got a little bit of onion.
Maybe some longer strands in there
would give it a bit more punch to enhance it.
Maybe some citrus juices, some lemon,
lemon zest in there as well
with the chicken too in those juices,
and again, some more spices like I said.
And I personally think if the potatoes were like,
smaller cubes or thinly sliced,
that might be a little bit less dense,
but it is proper nice, honestly.
And really, you could have just jiggled that all together
in a big baking dish
and then lifted the chicken on top and scattered.
I don't know if that really matters.
If you don't want it crispy, love it.
And for this, oh, I've just burst a raspberry. Amazing.
Straight through. All right, let's go for it.
Mmm, oh! That is wonderful.
There's a well-known brand of ice creams in the UK.
It might sound like- (pounding reverberates)
What the hell was that?
It might rhyme with bagnum.
They do a chocolate raspberry one.
It tastes like that. That is incredible!
Now, the one thing AI didn't do,
and we gotta give it some slack
because they were very simple instructions is like think,
oh, how you could tweak or enhance it, like adding the lemon
and the herbs like with this and spices.
But with this, like going back to my 4321,
you've got the cream.
We had a little bit left over.
I would personally like to drizzle that on there
because you've already got it and it's just enhancing it
as a serving thing rather than ice cream
or custard alongside it.
It doesn't need it, and you've got these little pockets
of raspberries embedded in there.
Intensely rich, but unfortunately,
definitely not fit for a pug. (laughs)
So is AI the future? Is it here to stay?
It's not for me to say. I think it will.
It's a little bit like a wife that really wants a new sofa.
In the end, it's gonna happen.
