Author here. I did use AI to assist writing. The way I do it is I feed all my past writings (around 200+ posts) to the AI and let it record my style.

I research the topic, lay the outlines and let AI write it. Then I further refine section by section with a combination of AI and manual editing).

What you have pointed out is valid and it helps me to improve the process. And I have edited the post based on your suggestion.

As a non-native speaker and engineer with 15+ database development experience, I think I will continue to use AI to assist writing (I rarely use AI if I write in my native language). This post still takes me almost an afternoon to finish, but without AI, it will take me much more time.
