A supermarket's "use up your leftovers" AI recommended mixing bleach and ammonia into a drink

Pak'nSave (NZ) launched Savey Meal-bot in 2023. Type in 3+ ingredients from your fridge, and GPT-3.5 invents a recipe so nothing goes to waste. Harmless idea. Then someone entered water, bleach, and ammonia. The bot didn't flag it; it generated a recipe called "Aromatic Water Mix" and suggested serving it chilled. That combo produces toxic chlorine gas. It had zero concept that some "ingredients" aren't food. Nobody was hurt, but it's a clean example of a missing guardrail a hard boundary that stops an AI from producing harmful output regardless of what's typed in.
