    I’m all for lab grown meat if it can taste even 90% the same as real meat and have the same benefits.

      My only problem with lab grown meat, is what if it actually ends up using more resources and energy then raising a cow or chicken?

      What happens if lab grown meat is so successful that say chickens or cows go extinct? That’s an interesting idea. I feel like that could be a Black mirror episode.

      Would you be good with Bezos saying

      I’m all in for robots if they work as fast as humans and are cheaper than the slave wage I pay them now

          But it is cheaper to hire slaves and let them piss in bottles, so you have to accept that as long as robots are not cheaper and faster. As long as robots are not 90% as fast and cheap as humans.
