I would share similar feelings.
Andor is great because it’s largely disconnected. They don’t rely on any big major cameos, there’s hardly even Jedi or Force involved. It’s just a standalone story in the same universe. Honestly, the same things that made Rogue One great make Andor great.
I don’t think you’ll be disappointed, unless you wanted more Skywalker Family Space Drama.
People don’t read. And before you down vote, it’s still bad.
It was not a human system that was posing as AI. It was a shitty AI that needed a lot of human intervention.
Yes, it’s still shit. Yes it’s still a problem with how they implemented it and how they pitched it.
But there needs to be a higher level of criticism. Saying “it was just human labor the whole time” is flatly incorrect. The better criticism is the truth… They made AI so shitty that it needed a bunch of human interaction, and their product was really really bad.
I’ve heard so many people state this as “there wasn’t any AI, it was just humans watching cameras.” And the false narrative distracts from the real story.
People pretend the truth doesn’t matter, and will retreat to “well even if it was AI it was so bad so I was still basically right.” and that’s a problem.
