If only they could have predicted it somehow with some sort of specialized knowledge
I only read about it last year, but it’s been such an awe inspiring revelation. I still can’t believe that something like that existed, but I kinda can imagine it, I have lived in a really dense city and then in part of the same city which is not as dense and the feeling is just confusing
Why would you let an AI cook this up if it is actually real?
