big restaurants have many cooks that are trained and monitored by the chef, but the chef is certainly not necessarily prepairing your meal.
The chef is however responsible for the outcome so you're absolutely right to complain if the meal sucks and most of this AI written crap definitely sucks to read.
That said, it's not about the "principle" of having your meal cooked by the chef / the text written word by word by the human.
It's about the outcome. People should learn to tame their AI tools/harnesses in such a way to produce quality output (code and prose) and it's absolutely despicable that so many people are so eager to lower our standards in quality just because everybody else seems to be doing it.
If I go to a restaurant and find out I got a reheated meal I'm going to be upset no matter how much quality control the chef does of the reheating. That's just not something I would ever go to a restaurant for.

No. It very much isn't about outcome. It's about interpersonal relationships.

The quality isn't the problem. The quality is that something that needs to be "tamed" is writing words that the "tamer" expects me to read.
