I never understand why companies post AI-written articles like this on their blog and why authors are okay having it attributed to them.

Authors: If you actually put deep thought into the content and then have an AI do the final writing, it immensely devalues your final product. I think this author actually has some good content here but the AI-generated prose does it no favors.

Companies: If your blog is for recruiting purposes (which is often one major motivation), AI slop articles are going to be a big turn off for the best talent.
