..i wonder how far away the machine where you just say 'i want bacon and eggs', and it materialises in the oven tray, is...? and then you can say to the AI.. 'make me a food that doesn't exist yet that i'm going to like..'
on the ground, though, this is fascinating...and a mind boggling future of molecule production..i wonder what the 'ink formulation' for tryptamines, or anti-oxidant phenols would be..?
That's indeed the fun part where one could synthesize random foods with a future inkjet bioprinter. Who doesn't want to print some good food from other parts of the world or even some magic mushrooms for example?
But there is a dark side to it as well. For example, the complete SARS virus RNA sequence is known and is publically available. Imagine that just ordinary people could print these viruses at home with their tweaked printer. But I guess that's just some real doomsday thinking:?
