Good book, terrible A.I. narration

I really enjoyed the story. I plan on reading more books by this author. What I have a problem with is the terrible A.I. narration. It really diluted the story. There was weird cadence in its narration, inflection that didn't fit or work with the context. There was mispronunciations...for example it pronounced the word minivan as "min-eh-van". There were parts where clearly the writing was meant to convey a certain dialect...but A.I. didn't pick up on it. A woman was saying "ma girl" ...which implies a way of speaking, dialect, condensing of words as a way to portray the way the character speaks. But A.I. pronounced it "maw girl" whith a weird pause in the middle of the two words that wouldn't have been present in conversation. It is things like that, that a person narrating this would have understood and been able to perform. The A.I. really ruined the vibe of the story. It takes you out of what is happening.

Nonsense

Not my cup of tea. And I love a gd witch story. Just a lot of nonsense in my opinion
