Is "food" a social construct?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world – -52 points – 5 months ago

Hear me out. There's nothing innate to an object that makes it "food". It's an attribute we give to certain things that meet certain qualities, i.e. being digestible, nutritious, perhaps tasty or satisfying in some way, etc. We could really ingest just about anything, but we call the stuff that's edible "food". Does that make it a social construct?

Give me the link to your ted talk please

TEDx

Someone should build an AI-powered stupid TED talk generator. You just include a link to:

https://dumbted.ai/title-of-your-talk-in-the-path

Then it generates the talk from that title idempotently and shows that in a video player.

Anyone know how I can use some generative AI video from prompt software?
