Seems like it has a long way to go before it's a port of System 7.

They apparently used AI assisted reverse engineering to reconstruct Apple System 7.1 from Motorola 68000 binaries in just three days. Their approach relied on QEMU emulation rather than native PC hardware execution. QEMU provided the virtualized 68k environment necessary to run the reconstructed Mac system. The AI generated C code was compiled for 68k and executed within QEMU's 68k emulation.
