do you know that LLMs operate on text and don't have any of the sensory input or relevant training data? you're just handwaving away 99.9% of the work and declaring it solved. of course what you're talking about is possible,

many, many chinese people WANT their property to get eminent domained, because they can get well compensated for it. sometimes it's even above market rates or they'll be given multiple apartments (that they can then rent out) in e
