B. Rebar rusts even if totally encased which would split the marble from within. (Marble is porous anyway so total encasement isn’t super easy anyway.)
C. It isn’t needed, Bernini was doing more with less before the advent of rebar.
Artists were using metal bars inside marble statutes for joining and shaping for centuries. But I’m not going to argue about it as this is lemmy and opposing facts are not wanted here.
Yes ai is always correct. This is true, just for much larger statues like David though iirc it has no support either just a hole in the base to connect it to the roof it was intended to be on.

It’s amazing how an “AI” summary is gospel when we need it to be, and simultaneously shunned as blasphemy when we need it to be. And ironically you used a specific error that was over a year old as an example to illustrate your point that all “AI” summaries are wrong as a result.
Metal rebar reinforced supports inside it.
No.

That’s just the AI summary, my dude. The very same AI summary that instructed how to make spaghetti with gasoline and pizza with glue.
You still need to fact-check that shit.
ffs….
