Best AI photo food tracker?

Can you recommend the best AI food tracker where you snap a picture of the plate and it logs all your calories? I don't have time to punch everything into my fitness pal and the ease appeals to me. Free or cheap would be good? Also, did it motivate you? I'm struggling with the low fat nature of slimming world. It's just so hard not to go over syns. I can endlessly eat fruit as I get the squits. Since having two babies I have a Winnie the Pooh style stomach on top of a very pear shaped body and I need to shred. Thank you for any advice 🙏

Actually- a much worse gut than Winnie. His is modest compared to mine.

No advise but following along with interest

I'd never heard of this before but then after clicking on this thread, an ad for one came on my Facebook feed. In the add he snapped a picture of a few carrot sticks and a toasted muffin, and it "calculated" the calories- except- without knowing the weight how could it be accurate? Maybe not so much of an issue with carrots, but what if it was grated cheese, or something high calorie? Plus it calculated "buttered" muffin, again- there's a huge difference between a tsp butter and a tsp low fat spread. So you would need to change/manually adjust the selections anyway if you want accurate tracking. It's probably easier to use a well established tracker app that scans bar codes and weigh everything to get accurate numbers. I can't see an AI one saving much time, plus if you don't have your phone when you eat, you'd have to add that manually as well.
