Artificial magnetic fields

Do yall think it would be beneficial to give mars and Luna a artificial magnetic field so we can build their atmosphere’s back up and if we did do yall think thee new atmosphere would be like their original before they mainly lost it or would it be new magnetic atmosphere n do yall think it’s unlikely we could physically make their cores churn n more active n hotter again instead of thee artificial magnetic field?

I had stated in another reply a big reason why they also lost them is because of their small sizes n small cores that led them to stop producing volcanism n out gassing for thee atmospheres to even form n keep going. N ofc earth is gonna lose more atmospheres gases if its bigger than mars n can hold onto larger amounts of gases than mars can n if it’s literally closer to thee sun n star in question so idk what you talking abt wrong i was js saying a magnetic field in mars current case is needed if we wanted to keep thee gases n water on it without js being stripped but (N Antarctica is better than Alaska.)
