A comic in four panels:
Panel 1. White text on black
AI Design Logic
Panel 2. A guy sits in a restaurant at a table with a checkered table cloth. A waiter stands near, hands behind back waiting attentively.
Guy: Get me a cheese pizza
Panel 3. The waiter returns with a pizza in hand.
Panel 4. The guy gestures proudly at the pizza. The waiter looks less than amused.
Guy: Wow, look what I made!


I mean I get the point, but people will actually say “I made pizza for dinner” when they just heated up a frozen pizza which is the same.
Do they? Because when this come up what I usually hear is more apologetic - something along the lines of “oh, I didn’t actually make it”. They certainly won’t try to defend it when pushed.
In my 35 years of life I’ve never once heard anyone not say yeah. I made a pizza when they just heated one up in the oven.
The very act of heating it up in the oven is the cooking of the pizza. As far as I’ve been able to tell from everyone I’ve ever interacted with in my life.
Heating things up in the oven is generally speaking, considered cooking.
Even more egregious never heard anyone say anything other than I made x when all they did was put something in the microwave.
Hell if I’m just boiling some hot dogs and throwing them in the bun I’m going to say I made some hot dogs. I didn’t raise the pig slaughter them stuff the sausage. But I sure the f*** cooked them. I made those hot dogs.
That’s because of our colloquial use of “made” in this context. Certainly “making” dinner is a different use of “made” than the one in this comic strip where all he did is “ask”, right?
And AI would hand you a salad calling it a pizza.
I take pride in my cooking
I would say “I reheated a pizza” if I lowered myself to doing that
When I say that I make something, I made it from scratch
If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe
Don’t be obtuse
