Ask HN: How much AI is in your writing?

Looking at tech blogs, HN submissions, et cetera, a lot of content is (partly, increasingly?) generated by AI. The value of the reader's time and slop has been discussed at length. I ask:

Among you, the HN-community who writes, how much do you use AI in the process?

There is somewhat a spectrum from none, to grammarly-style cleanup, to whisprflow to 'look at my project, write me a HN-ready post'.

Personally, I've done a 180, where I started at light touchups to rough draft-to-polished back to almost none, to keep the writing my own (I do some writing at jakobs.dev).

As a reader, do you believe you notice, and care?
