Can we use science to automate (as much as possible) the production of food? Are there any new ways of doing this that are promising?

The music is insufferable and usually this is the type of idea that "looks good" but can be completely destroyed by asking an actual farmer some simple questions.

Farming needs a general purpose robot/ai. That can be taken to a watermelon field and pick watermelons. The thr next day it can pick oranges. All without any changes beyond telling it what it needs to harvest that day.
