  • But it inevitably will become that cheap, as your steak and pork become infinitely, exponentially more expensive over time.

    We’re already massively subsidizing meat production and we’re entirely ignoring the majority of meats costs in calculating prices.

    Those costs are going to keep getting higher, however, and those subsidies won’t be able to last even in a wealthy monetary issues country like the US. Unless you completely abandon capitalism, real beef isnt going to be a thing for middle class or poor people within 20 years, and it won’t be a thing period within a hundred.

    However the tech to print meat will get smaller and cheaper over time and the seed ingredients are already cheaper than the land maintenance and feed for real livestock. Hell it’s cheaper than most inputs for anything except corn and wheat. There will be a time in the next few decades where middle class people in smart countries will have a meat printer at home to make whatever they want for dinner and shopping for meat will be too prohibitively expensive for anyone but the rich.

    Climate change is already causing crop failures and water distribution fights, and quite frankly the meat industry doesn’t have enough money to fight the climate on this issue.

    In the US, at least, nearly all corporations digitized around the late nineties while buying into personality test nonsense.

    At this time the screening was more simple than it was today, keyword searches and yes/no personality decisions that eliminated over 90% of applicants.

    Now with LLMs they can eliminate nearly all applicants, giving them more legal justification to request visas or outsource.
