That is one of the things that irks me so much about the lower 48… The farther south you go, the better the food gets, but the worse off people are…
I was in El Paso for a wedding last year and even a simple road-side BBQ chain was lightyears better than a fancy steakhouse in New England.
There is still a pretty solid divide between us and our technology (for now). We still type on keyboards with our hands and make prosthetics. It gets blury when discussing things through a medium where technology is the means of communication. I could be an AI, you could be a robot, we “humans” already cant really tell the difference most of the time. I think your prediction would hold true when the integration between meat and machine starts being physically indistinguishable.
