I created an Android 12 virtual environment with CPU/ABI arm64-v8a through the AVD manager built into Android Studio, but an error is occurring.
I'm using an Intel CPU MacBook.
If I selected CPU/ABI as x86 or armeabi-v7a when creating the emulator, it works without any problem.
I also checked that the SDK for the Android version to be created is installed.
What's the problem?

the arm64 images on api28-31 are meant for M1 host.
Historically emulator ABI meant what architecture the emulator 'natively' supported, i.e. binaries generated by NDK.
Ran on older QEMU virtualization which did the ARM to x86 translation. When the emulator was released it had no graphics hardware acceleration so was laggy but operational.
Is for modern hardware and support virtualization, and have reasonable performance.

Google added ARM ABI support to x86/x86-64 emulator images for certain version of Android:

as mentioned in the above issue ticket link:
If you need to test arm abis on x86_64 host you can use the api 31/30/28, as they have ndk-translated arm support.
