I listened to it and it’s genuinely not bad

Of course not. Its predicated on the collected works of a decades-long professional comedian.

If you re-mixed a new screenplay using the combined works of Shakespeare (and called it, idk, West Side Story or 10 Things I Hate About You or The Lion King) you could put together a blockbuster movie fairly easily, too.

If it’s not a fake ghostwritten by the creators, it must have been heavily rerolled and edited to make it so coherent.

"Mechanical turk" jobs are way more hellish than any realistic AI dystopia, even though some AI developments use MTurks
