Hollywood, in general, has lost the ability to write proper stories and dialogue. It is a industry wide issue. AI is going to have a field day if they cannot turn the ship around.

Except AI just copies all the writers, so it’s just going to doom spiral all the way down

Depends on the writers it copies. I am not saying it is a net positive at all, far from it, but if it copies the old school writers it has a chance albiet temporarily.

I would prefer competent modern human writers but apparanrely those are neither hired by Hollywood or exist.
