Because you can ask it questions about the recipe it gives. It also gets straight to the point, unlike pretty much every online recipe.

But for the most part I don't really follow recipes, so I rarely use it for that. It's mostly questions about cooking techniques, timings and advice.

I use it all the time for cooking! The only time it ever led me astray was when it essentially answered, "an air fryer is a great way to cook salmon!"

I wasn't familiar enough with air fryers yet, and I made very dry fish.

An air fryer is just a convection oven. Also it probably picked up on the constant hype and advertising for air fryers. They are the go to kitchen gimmick right now.

I've made good salmon in an air fryer. The timing is tricky.

Sure, seared is great too.
