AI is amazing. I can now tell it my ideas and get easy to understand visualizations of the concepts I consider.
Like Passive Water Desalination. I think passive water desalination is the future of our species.
First, let me tell you about how I use AI to create the visuals of my ideas. I describe my ideas in detail to AI, everything read, everything visualized here is my idea. AI did not create the idea, it created the visual art of my instructions so that I can now convey my idea in visual format.
Why did the Prince of Saudi Arabia use small machines for an Earth shaping size project? He sent bulldozers, where history shows us big projects require larger giant machines. Highway systems created giant pavers. Train tracks created train building machines. Tunnels created the boring machine. Bridges... Think of the size of mining equipment.
A project the size of The Line, a great indoor outdoor city, should start with a larger great machine. It was flabbergasted to see hundreds of bulldozers pushing sand around.
I would think like a machine that made it as it went, literally creating the city infrastructure as it moves forward under the power of quadcopters. Something like this.
Building The Line Requires Creating New Extreme Technology
This is the type of machine that could build The Line. Think Boring Company with giant 3d printing pipe routing machines, passive water desalination channels as an added feature (since you have a giant long building you can have a giant long canal for passive desalination of seawater running in a shallow canal next to the building). AI is used to run the giant machine, move it in the correct direction, detect soil, apply force, order materials to the front. Moving power is by drone quadcopters, Most of the The Line's infrastructure is built "in one go".
Passive Water Desalination
Saudi Arabia could prosper for passive water desalination. Desert access to large seawater deposits are perfect for a 100 mile long, 200 ft channel of seawater protruding into the desert.
A 100 mile long 200 foot wide canal in the desert covered with 7 layers of transparent plastic like materials and drainage layers in an arch above the water channel could turn evaporation into water run off. Even 7 layers or a clear non toxic membrane could work. The arch is slight elevating over space so that the airflow tries to move upward and therby creating an airflow through the giant translucent pipe.
Passive Water Desalination is a strong investment.
