TL;DR
What did Ai Mom Tips use Gemini for?
A parent voices a meal plan request to Gemini, swaps out a dish they don't like, then pastes the recipes into Gemini in Chrome on walmart.com and lets it add every ingredient to the cart for pickup. Gemini searched for each ingredient and filled the cart on its own while they did something else, stopping at checkout so they could choose pickup or shipping.
What they did
They asked Gemini by voice for three quick, healthy, high-protein dinners that waste no ingredients, then asked it to replace the stir-fry they didn't want. It suggested a grain bowl that reuses chicken prepped on day one. They asked for the recipes, opened walmart.com in Chrome, opened the Gemini panel, pasted the recipes and told it to add all the ingredients to the Walmart cart. They then reviewed the cart, removed salt and pepper they already had, and swapped a cucumber for the kind they prefer.
How it went
Gemini searched for each ingredient and filled the cart on its own while they did something else, stopping at checkout so they could choose pickup or shipping.
Worth knowing
- The cart step only works in the Chrome tab where the Gemini panel is open, and it takes a few minutes. Check brands and quantities before checkout. They chose not to let it make the purchase. They note the whole thing could have been done in the Chrome panel from the start, including asking it to swap items.
