I think this is extremely important with AI generated content, but seems to be given less and less thought as people start to "trust" AI as it seeps into the public conscious more. It needs to be reviewed, filtered, and fixed where appropriate. After that, it isn't any different from reviewing data on your own, and wording it in a way that fits the piece you're writing. Unfortunately, there's so much trust in AI now that people will go ahead and publish content without even reading it for the correct tense!

The same problem exists if you blindly trust any source without verifying it. There is a huge amount of endlessly recycled incorrect blog spam out there for all domains. Not only that but this problem has always existed for second hand information so it's not like we were even starting from some pristine state of perfect truthfulness. We have the tools we need to deal with the situation and they were developed hundreds of years ago. Empiricism being chief among them. Nullius in verba[0]
