    Couldn’t help but be skeptical about trying to solve an AI generated murder mystery. And what do you know, the actual mystery was nonsense in the end ;D Also they put a spotlight on the huge energy costs of running an AI. Which will do absolutely nothing to dissuade anyone in the real world from using AI because it’s just a silly space show and people don’t draw parallels from those to their own realities but I felt pandered to in my views, so I got that going for me which is nice.

      Plus it’s fully in keeping with canon. They mentioned several times in TNG and beyond that holodecks needed isolated power. (And obviously we know the original Enterprise didn’t have a holodeck in a few years’ time.) It’s a nice way for them to have their cake and eat too.

      I hope they have another holodeck episode at some point, maybe on a space station.
