Don't get me wrong – I think if people grew more of their own food it would be fantastic! And technology combined with alternative farming practices has the potential to be hugely transformative. I'm all for it. But the way things are currently, it's a monumental effort to grow food for sustenance on any meaningful scale, and would take enormous amounts of time, energy, and effort – leaving very little for other pursuits. I want people to also be able to make art, music, etc.
