From AI:
"The CarbReduce steam basket reduces carbohydrates through a specialized two-step separation process during cooking. It physically separates the starch-heavy water from the rice, preventing the grains from reabsorbing it.
1. High-Temperature Starch Dissolution
Boiling: The cooker heats water to a precise boil to cook the rice.
Dissolving: High heat breaks down and dissolves the easily digestible starches (amylopectin) out of the grains.
Release: These starches leach directly into the surrounding cooking water.
2. Physical Separation and Draining
Perforation: The basket features tiny holes along the bottom and sides.
Isolation: The starchy water drains out of the basket into the bottom of the main inner pot.
Steaming: The rice finishes cooking via steam, suspended safely above the carbohydrate-heavy liquid."
Some people season with butter and/or salt or other things with it. But most don't if they plan on making enough that there are leftovers and the rice could be used for a different purpose in another meal.

This instant pot rice cooker probably makes a bigger difference if it works as advertised.
