AI Helps To Create Lab-Grown Meat (FORBES)
February 7, 2025
Scientists are using artificial intelligence to improve lab-grown meat production in two key ways: modeling the structure of meat proteins to optimize their design, and analyzing laboratory growth conditions to make the process more efficient - in one case improving growth rates from 6% to 14%. While this technology is advancing, current production remains limited, with leading companies producing only about 50,000 pounds annually and facing challenges of high costs, though analysts value the market at $200 million with projected 15% annual growth through 2030.
