I've gone to a couple vegetarian restaurants where they've made some pretty convincing "beef", "chicken", "duck", and "pork" out of tofu, so why not insects?

- sitkack 12y agoBut how were the insects raised, farmed and killed? Was it insectane?
- SolarNet 12y agoI think the idea is that insects are so far down on the animal scale. For example, they don't really have pain [0]. At some point we have to relate animals to robotics. And insects are so low on the scale of intelligence it might as well be below our currently technology (Watson merely being massive specialized application of our current technology). Where as animals like cows have emotions, can feel pain, have memory, personalities, relationships, etc. They are better than our current AI software in many ways.
