The problem is that there’s infinite “content” out there.
The amount of work the author puts in is correlated with the value of the piece (insight/novelty/etc). AI-written text is a signal that there’s less less effort and therefore less value there.
It’s not a perfect correlation and there are lots of exceptions like foreign language speakers, but it is a signal.
