I take “AGI goes well” to imply a wealthy and technologically advanced society. I think that could mean:
- Very cheap and delicious meat alternatives. - Factory farming waning as it reaches inefficiencies and bottlenecks, not able to compete with the above. - More demand for higher-welfare options like free-range and local produce.
But it also seems possible that we “lock in” factory farming and scale it further and that AGI adopts speciesist views.
Very uncertain, I don’t find myself strongly disagreeing with claims across the spectrum.
