Venice was built on massive wood piles driven into the clay soil. What if, they just did that again? But this time, the piles extend several feet above sea level, and they can place mounds of gravel rock over the clay to allow for better drainage. Basically, jack the whole city up and create a new, permeable, foundation

I have many doubts regarding the MOSE project, starting with the reasons why all the movement mechanisms were placed below the water level and in contact with the sandy seabed. But the most serious doubt is what would happen if one of the barriers were to suddenly fail: how violent would the wave hitting the city be, and how devastating could it become? Frankly, I would have preferred that, to discuss these issues, you had interviewed engineers without conflicts of interest in discussing what is being discussed.

Attempting to hold back the tide is an analogy for futility for a reason. Let Venice go. Times change, cities rise and fall. It is better to get as much as possible into museums. Who knows, maybe if you move a lot of the history to safety, a simple solution might present itself, and a new Venice, potentially on a different principle, can be built. This is what is wrong with Europe these days, an obsession with the past at the expense of the future. It's interesting that a key city in the formation of the modern world, with such shaky foundations, would be Venice, a city on a time limit that modernity would inevitably sink beneath a rising sea level.

Maybe they should dismantle the whole thing and reassemble it somewhere else like they did with the London Bridge. Depending on the tide to wash its sewage out to sea might have been okay a couple thousand years ago, but we know better than that now. Nothing made with human hands lasts forever anyway. Venice is not going to be around forever and that’s okay. The billions of dollars required to keep it afloat could be better used to alleviate some human suffering.

When a civilization is built upon ports, and those ports are submerged or high and dry, that ends the civilization because the supply chain disruption is so severe. WHAT'S THE ROLE OF FOUNDATION MODELS? Well, you can input all marine archeology and archeology from ports and sea shores such as Troy, Byblos, Shore Forts Roman Britain, Isle Thanet Roman Britain, Chapter 18, Book of Revelation, Egypt, Pompei, Carthage, Caesaria , Israel, and so on PLUS multi modal such as measurements from Rome's port. Then search popular climate change literature from past few decades. Next: AI can search for maritime architectural and civil engineering solutions. Apparently, prior to Rome's hydrophilic cement, ports were designed for sea level fluctuations with hydraulic solutions, much like Canada's St Lawrence Seaway. Troy for example. This is just one way AI can save civilization. You could form a GAN to see what the solution is: Lithium vehicles versus civil engineering.
