I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my post here and elsewhere. I am personally not surprised at all that GPT 5.1 got this type of thing wrong. Like I said in the post, I don’t believe LLMs should be trusted on complicated and important questions like these, and I only used GPT because Real Estate Development was a somewhat arbitrary example, not a specific call for focus.[1] My real CTA with this post is for people who believe nematodes (and other soil animals) are our primary concern to investigate other interventions that don’t concern factory farming. YGG’s comment captures it well.
There could be some interesting discussion about the difference between buying beef and spending money developing land in a way that could turn a profit allowing you to earn to give, meaning a straight cost-effectiveness comparison doesn’t really make sense.
However, I really don’t really know if Real Estate Development specifically is a better or worse use of your time. Again, it was an arbitrary example.
