Vatican launches AI-generated version of St Peter’s Basilica

St. Peter’s Basilica, an ancient site, now has a “digital twin.” I love that anyone, anywhere, can explore it closely without traveling. They used drones and thousands of photos to capture every detail – mosaics, sculptures, even hidden parts! Plus, this tech is helping find areas needing repair. While I'm all for tech making history accessible, I wonder if seeing it digitally feels the same as standing in that grand space.
