In your case it might simply be that there was not enough of this kind of tasks in the training data.

I will note that you apparently believe that fans of SW and ST want to have something they loved torn down and destroyed.
Come on, don't do that. This narrative that somehow the new stuff is retroactively ruining your childhood, that it's specifically designed as an insult to your fandom... That's toxic.
Last Jedi is a good example of that. Some people complain that Luke isn't a Marty Stu anymore, he's not just waiting to be unleashed and go defeat the First Order with a laser sword. That would have been a terrible movie. How unsatisfying would it be that all the Rebels needed to do was find the guy who saved them last time, so he could do the same thing again. It would also prove again that the only people who matter are Skywalkers, everyone else is just waiting for them to resolve their issues.
The whole point was that everyone in the Rebellion matters, they all contribute, and The Force isn't just something that a few privileged people can use to shape events on a galactic scale. Rey is revealed to be nobody special at all, just someone who has the opportunity to do something meaningful. Then they blew all that up by writing a movie that was supposedly based on "fan feedback", and it was the worst one of the lot. Undid all the interesting ideas from TLJ.
Probably one of the worst examples of fans ruining a franchise. It's never really recovered. Andor was only good because it ignored all that stuff, didn't have any Force stuff in it, just ordinary people trying to make a difference, and not because it's the right thing, but because the Empire hurt them and the people they care about.
Then they wouldn't be cooperating on marketing with Microsoft.
If you have a NVidia GPU that is no older than five years then it already contains a number of RISC-V microcontrollers doing various tasks, and so will this chip.
That list just proves the point. Finn isn't trying to beat her, he's trying to diffuse the situation. She can't fly the Millennium Falcon better than Han, in fact the first thing she does is crash it into the ground. At no point does she ever demonstrate particularly good piloting skills, unlike Luke who goes from shooting womp rats to taking down a heavily fortifies Death Star in about a week.
I can't be bothered to go through every point, and I'm not disputing some bad writing decisions, but she is in no way a Mary Sue. She is no way the equal of Kylo Ren either, who dominates in his fight with her in the first movie. She never beat Luke in a 1-on-1 fight either, that simply never happens in the movies.
But "Star Wars: The Last Flop" lost the thread. Instead of a plot that was even more epic and had even more galactic significance, it just doubled-down on the family drama and kind of lumbered around, getting us nowhere new.
Not entirely true. We got improved light speed tech that could take off from inside the loading bay of a freighter and stop right above the surface of a "planet".
Even that architecture is getting sucked into the AI bullshit. This was just released last week and it's the fastest board so far. https://cdn-resource.spacemit....
The core is a LONG way from the surface. Volcanoes aren't. The mantle plumes move slowly.
OTOH, we've known that the magnetic poles were getting ready to switch for decades now. We don't know when or why or how long it will take. This is probably related to that, but we don't have any really good models.
The user interface is equivalent functionally (in the strong, formal sense) to a part of the code, because it is right in there. And no, the UI will NOT give you that information either.
Seriously, are you stupid or what?
Indeed. Just like the Russians to not understand what surveillance tech can do.
Indeed. But seeing how my comment got moderated down, I guess a lot of people are deep in AI psychosis now and cannot tolerate any criticism of this new golden calf.
Hmm. Good point. People would be stupid enough to buy this, but they probably cannot afford to. Incidentally, I just got one, but I am in Europe and our economy is not systematically being destroyed.
Indeed. And especially not one signed by MicroSlop.
The core reason why I have only bought AMD graphics cards for a long time now.
Well, first you have to be stupid. That covers about 80% of the human race in some form. Second, you must be technologically incompetent. And then, you must be in awe of Microsofts dominance, while having no understanding of the abysmal (and getting worse) product quality they deliver. I would say that for the time being, this may be a product they can actually sell.
