Los Angeles: A guy named Ejay Hernandez found a cool way to save on groceries. He’s been using ChatGPT, an AI chatbot, to whip up grocery lists that fit his budget and the store he shops at.

In a TikTok video, he showed how he asked the AI for a list that would cover meals for two weeks. He really thinks this tool can help others too, but not everyone is on board with it.

Ejay said, “You need to use ChatGPT for your grocery list. It is a lifesaver.” He even shared how he got a list for $70, which is about £56, for two weeks. He mentioned you can tweak it to focus on protein or fiber, depending on what you want.

The chatbot gives specific product suggestions and even tells you how much protein is in each meal. Plus, it can suggest alternatives if you don’t like something. Ejay was super excited about how it adjusts prices based on your budget, saying it’s usually pretty spot on.

His TikTok video blew up, racking up 9.6 million views and tons of likes. Some users chimed in, saying they’ve been using ChatGPT for everything from meal planning to business ideas.

But not everyone is thrilled. Some folks pointed out the environmental cost of using AI. One user warned about the energy and water it takes to run ChatGPT, saying we need to be mindful of how often we use it. Others chimed in with similar concerns, urging people to use it wisely.
