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.
Why do you think people will bother reading something you didn't bothered to write?
What I would argue is knowing what topic to write is more important, and I am confident if you throw this particular question to AI, the response would be much worse.
No. It's more like clueless students trying to pass off a screenshot of a Google search for original research.

Except you don't. At most you are saving the output that everyone around you is more than able to type themselves, with the benefit of people being able to continue their own chat session.
Just call a spade a spade and call it what it is: spamming content that's way beyond your technical ability in a desperate attempt to generate engagement.
How many times did that point have to be reiterated in unnecessary AI style?
Was the article AI generated. I hope so, if not it really shows how bad AI has degraded our ability to write. Could you at least have read over and cleaned up the prose a bit? That whole section could have been written in straight forward human language, and it would be shorter, clearer and less infuriating to read.
