ChatGPT to rate diets

[Growly]

Does anybody use chatGPT to rate your diet and is it accurate?

IT rated my diet as 7.5/10 and used "Dietary Guidelines for Americans" as a reference and Perspective of "nutritional balance and functional health perspective"

Interesting idea, I haven't tried that but sounds like a decent rating. What did you get downrated for?

@Michael569
This is what I posted on chat-gpt(I adjusted the diet a bit)

 

And chat-gpt said this:

What do you think?

Ah, I can see what you did here  

Its somewhat of a made-up repertoire of subjective markers that you asked AI to run through American health Guidelines. While its an interesting idea, you might get a somewhat skewed perspective because some of these aren't exactly the focus of the  public health guidelines. 

The  "anti-bloating potential", that's super subjective so that wouldn't be a standardised marker. Not all bloating is bad and not all people bloat the same way. There is some speculative evidence that early onset bloating is a sign of microbiota adaptation and can, with time, get better. Bloating isn't necessarily a sign of a disease.  I think the Sonnenburg's even found that the gas produced by some bacteria can be utilised by others inside your intestines so this would be a difficult market to defend in the face of deep scrutiny. I like to look at bloating as a small price to pay for being able to tolerate high fibre diet. To me it is a tradeoff worth making. 

The micro and macronutrient balance is a good indicator to look into for sure. I would say, it may need more data than one lunch and breakfast. I usually ask people to provide me at least 3 days worth of data. Sometimes even more than that. It is hard to predict a pattern based on two meals. 

Also when you are looking at things like the American health guidelines, there is  focus on chronic disease risk prevention. That is probably their primary use. To not just avoid nutrient deficiencies in babies, children and elderly but also to help minimise the cost to the healthcare system through informing the public of the summary of the existing evidence and then helping form dietary guidelines accordingly.  So basically you want to create a diet that is associated with the lowest risk of all major chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, obesity, cancer and neurodegenerative disease. 

 I'd say that is even more relevant than micro and macronutrient quality and density. Maybe that would be an interesting one to ask but again, you'd need more data for that but it would help you along those lines. 

Dietary Guidelines for Americans - this is a condensed version, and this is the long version  (in case you were interested)
