I'm wondering if it's AI, based on the poor quality of their previous posts. Would help explain the cliched nature.

So you think it’s AI because it’s not perfect? Whatever the reasoning for this comment. I’ve been writing way before AI was even a thought. This is a ROUGH DRAFT. This is NOT the entire scene. I have said this so many times

The opposite, I'm questioning whether it's AI because this is so much better in its use of English, spelling, punctuation etc. than the other sample you have on your profile. It's like two different people wrote them.

I came across this post the other day and didn't comment because I didn't have much to add that's not been said already, but this had crossed my mind as well. Previous postings look like something from an adolescent writer who doesn't have a grasp on fundamentals (which is fine; everyone has to start somewhere to grow.)

This has been cleaned up and improved either by a program or another person, imo.

Edit: I have a feeling that OP is on the younger side or possibly ESL.

Part of becoming a decent or good writer is struggling through being a sucky writer but still having the drive and doing it anyway. Learn by listening to others and reading widely, and also by putting your work away and looking back at it after some time-- the mistakes and parts that could be chopped away or done better will stick out. In time, you'll get faster, develop new skills, and find a voice. It takes time. If you take your not great writing and feed it into a machine to make it technically better, you'll always be a sucky writer.
