When they say that "prompt engineering" is a skill, they're not kidding. Look at the staggering difference in results from these two prompts. The first one is how a human would ask it. The second one kowtows a bit to the machine side, hinting at the algorithm it should employ.

I wonder if this bears a resemblance to how a might lead a struggling child to an answer.

@LouisIngenthron I wonder if it's answering the preparation time needed before starting the procedure?

@LouisIngenthron seems like it just thought the first prompt meant “prepare for”. It’s pretty good at determining typos and grammatical mistakes. I did some soul searching and I personally might ask “How long would this recipe take?” which might also avoid the issue of only accounting for prep time? And I’m thinking that might result in a better answer, since the step-based answer might not account for prep time.
