Not really. When asked a question, a human would think about the answer, and construct a sentence to try and express that point. An LLM doesn’t know what the answer is ahead of time, it’s not working towards a point, it’s just statistically guessing the next couple of letters over and over again. The human equivalent would just be making random mouth noises and hoping the other person interprets them as words

Different keyboard layouts. The big difference between UK and US layouts tends to be swapping the " and @ symbols, so on a UK keyboard the ! is shift+1 and the " is shift+2.

Going back over the scene, it’s confusing. The Rani says it was the genetic bomb, but earlier she said she’d flipped her DNA to avoid it. She says their species as a whole is infertile (“a biological dead end”), which sounds like she’s talking about more than just the two of them. If the genetic bomb was a slow, lingering extinction rather than an instant death, why did she only have a split second to avoid it? Maybe that means that others survived the genetic bomb as well, but the Doctor already knew about the infertility despite not knowing about other survivors. Add to that the Rani’s disgust at Mrs Floods comments last week about the new Rani being her child, and the whole thing feels like two different ideas squashed together and not quite fitting.

I don’t think it was very clear if that was a side effect of the genetic bomb, or if it was something else. I may have been a little distracted by the thought that they were making Looms canon, but I would love it if that’s where they go with this.

Edit: It might just be a coincidence, but I just realised there may be another link to the Looms. In her Cameo, Jodie’s Doctor says there’s a “great big time Schism on it’s way”. That article on the Looms? “devices used by the Great Houses of the Time Lords to perpetuate their race after the Great Schism.”

It’s probably not going to happen, but I can dream.

Yeah. Your main combat level is on the player/companion, so it’s much easier to change up your team and try out different beasts. Individual beasts do have levels, but that’s more about when you can ‘remaster’ (i.e. evolve) them and to unlock moves (which you can swap out at will). Also, elemental type effects are so much more interesting than just a flat damage bonus, and the music is really good. So in summary, yes, I would highly recommend.
