That sounds like... something that would make my life slightly better, in a non-essential but desirable way.

Can my phone do this already? When will it be able to do it?

Without a "large recipe model" to be able to vet these recipes that it's likely generating, I'd be worried about the accuracy and palatability of generated recipes.

There are websites that have databases of recipes you can sort by ingredient, which is a much better approach to this problem.

Yes. Take a picture with ChatGPT and ask it the same question.
LLMs are, generally, _not good_ at making up recipes. Like, very not good.
