• If you need to install Rosetta2 on your Mac - Apple Support

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861


Rosetta 2 enables a Mac with Apple silicon to use apps built for a

Mac with an Intel processor. "If you have a Mac with Apple silicon,

you might be asked to 'install Rosetta' in order to open an app. Click

Install, then enter your user name & password to allow installation

to proceed."


So it would seem the Mac would assist with installation on demand

if you try & run applications originally intended for Intel-based Mac.
