Talk:Digital Foragers

Story idea: alternative history in which humans didn't undergo the agricultural revolution, but did nonetheless undergo the industrial and digital revolutions. Instead of having cities with massive automatic farms and factories as we do now, people have developed an advanced nomadic lifestyle in which they hyper-efficiently hunt food and pick fruit.

I guess they'd have to automatically repopulate the food species, making it somewhat like mobile farming, or they'd run out of game. Or they could switch to more plentiful species, e.g. using their efficient technology to hunt rodents or insects. Then they'd also probably want to use some technology to make the animals tastier.
