I don’t think this is guaranteed, but if AI goes well and is used to develop better tasting, healthier, and more cost effective cultivated meat, it will be more likely to be adopted and will reduce reliance on factory farmed animals.
On the other hand, wild animals could be preserved as they are or spread throughout the galaxy, potentially increasing net suffering.
I think AI going well would leave a lot of this up to human choice and is therefore uncertain.
