Could you expand on how it's pulp-fictitious? Or noir? Or "rugged" detective? Why the "rugged"? I've never heard of the word "hardboiled" referring to anything but eggs.

I am glad you've lerned something new.

  • A human would not have applied any of these terms to the submission, let alone their amalgamation.

"Hardboiled" is a common term used for a certain genre of detective novel.

I don't know of any novels, but I do know that Calvin and Hobbes poked fun at this genre in some of the strips.

I suppose the comic books for Watchmen could fall into this same genre somewhat.

  • This is tangential to the commenter's inability to explain their choice of words which is atypical of a human who would have went with "dense", and suggests a 3T parameter model reaching for "1960s-noir-pulp-fiction-rugged-detective".

    AI comments are against the rules and I think the commenter's lack of an explanation for their choice of words sufficiently establishes it wasn't their words to begin with.
