Say they used AI to write it, it came out bad, and they published it anyway. They had the opportunity to "make it better" before publishing, but didn't. The only conclusion for this is, they just aren't good at writing. So whether AI is used or not, it'll suck either way. So there's no need to complain about the AI.

It's like complaining that somebody typed a crappy letter rather than hand-wrote it. Either way the letter's gonna suck, so why complain that it was typed?

Compared to human bad writing, AI writing tends to suck more verbosely and in exciting new ways (e.g. by introducing factual errors).

Not true. It's likely an effort issue in that situation.

And that kind of effort issue is good to call out, because it compounds the low quality.
