And no I don't mean in the political sense. It will always be politically relevant.

And it was also always a bit cringe, yet remained a favourite of mine. But this time it felt like the dialogue was written by AI. I'm not even kidding, it constantly put me off.

Yes its a 20 year old movie. Yes there are many more like it. But ai has ruined smth so special to me.

Lmk if you've experienced smth like this.

So something from before AI "seems like it was written by AI" either that means it was written like shit or AI can write at the hollywood level.

It means that AI tends to write in a dorky, friendly and informative way, even when covering negative topics.

And that's the way a lot of writers write. Especially in the past. And those types of sources are probably what AI was trained on.

V, as a character, is a giant dork quoting Shakespeare, constantly explaining things to a captive audience, and being an old-fashioned gentleman. Essentially an obnoxious neckbeard.
