The Bread Pudding

A fictional dialogue imagining a modern Julie/Julia project with generative AI:

Julie: sighs Another day stuck ... What is going on these days...

(scrolls absentmindedly on her phone and comes across an article about generative AI)

Hmm what's this? AI that can generate original stories, articles, even recipes? Maybe I could do a modern take on the Julie/Julia project but with AI!

starts a blog called 'Julie Tries Claude AI to Re-imagine Julia Recipe'

First up, let's see if Claude can come up with an original bread pudding recipe for me to try. Okay Claude, give me your best bread pudding dish!

Claude: Here is an original bread pudding recipe:

Ingredients:

• 6 cups cubed day old bread
• 1 cup raisins
• 3 eggs
• 2 cups milk
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 2 tbsp butter, melted

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Grease a 8x8 baking dish.
• In a bowl, mix together bread cubes and raisins.
• In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla and spices.
• Pour egg mixture over bread and stir to coat evenly.
• Pour into prepared baking dish and drizzle with melted butter.
• Bake for 45 min until set and top is lightly browned.
• Let cool 15 min before serving. Enjoy!

Julie: That was so fast! Okay Claude, let's bake up this original bread pudding tonight. If it turns out well, maybe you can generate a full dessert cookbook for us. This is going to be a delicious project!
