This Battlestar article is written by AI. Has to be; it's too awful

quote:

Glen A. Larson's 1970s series "Battlestar Galactica" was a curious mix of high-end sci-fi and down-and-dirty pulp adventure. The premise was a little highfalutin. Set in an unspecified year in a very distant part of the galaxy, humans had been waging war with a species of intelligent robots called Cylons. The Cylons have gotten the drop on humanity and wiped out most of our species, leaving only a few scant human starships, led by the warship Battlestar Galactica, adrift in the heavens. Armed with a fleet of dogfighters, and with nowhere to go, the fleet searches the galaxy for a legendary lost planet of origin known as Earth.


awful. This journalist should be fired just for using a temu AI to write this for him.

I don't think AI would ever write "highfalutin."

"a few scant startships"?

Humans were in those ships, which is the important point. And saying 'warship Battlestar Galactica' isn't technically redundant, but hell, it's common knowledge that at BATTLESTAR is by definition a 'warship'.

Written by a cylon to distract us from these important glimpses into our future.

This sounds like a when a kid busts out the thesaurus b/c they're desperately trying to lengthen as many words as possible to hit the number of pages the teacher requires for the assignment.
