    Dialogue editing has been standard praxis in Hollywood for decades. Nothing has happened here that couldn’t have been done manually.

    Also, they could have just hired a Hungarian actor for this part and had authenticity, instead they hired Adrian Brody and used AI to make him seem more Hungarian.

    Not really. You don’t get your movie funded when you hire a random Hungarian actor, and it would’ve been pretty weird if the character suddenly had a different voice when he speaks in Hungarian.
