Food can still be improved. Bread and fruit that remains good for months or years. Also polyphenol content can be increased and sugars replaced with natural zero calorie sweeteners through genetic engineering. Animals could be modified to be high in healthier monounsaturated fat rather than saturated fat.

As for ai there are technologies such as robots and humanoid biodroids that are possible also full immersion vr through connections to the brain. Enabling regeneration curing cancer and aging. Allowing for brain transplants. Also true nanomachine tech, appliances and devices made with true nanomachine tech can self repair self clean and can last for billions of years if they have energy provided.

I think in Japan tomatoes have been modified by CRISPR to contain more GABA acid and those went into the market a year ago. And those tomatoes were the first food product modified by CRISPR in the market. Also soy beans have been modified to contain more oleic acid. So food industry is going to change by CRISPR as it's easier and more precise to use as older GMO technologies and it's not GMO but gene editing.

Fyi, the last "A" in "GABA" already means "acid" so "GABA acid" would be redundant. :)
