The author is from Turkey (where I’m also originally from).

Believe it or not, when you write a blog post in a different language, it really helps to use an LLM, even just to fix your grammar mistakes etc.

I assume that’s most likely what happened here too.

IMO it would make sense to add a disclaimer then, e.g. “I wrote this myself but had AI edit”

I have no problem with people using AI, especially to close a language gap.

If you disclose your usage I have a _lot_ more trust that effort has been put into the writing despite the usage

I do believe it, but for whatever it's worth (maybe not much!):

If the author is willing and able to write understandable English, I'd prefer to read their version (even if it's very imperfect) than the LLM-polished version.

Alternatively, I'll happily read an article that was written in the author's native language and then translated directly to English.

This one bothered me because it's pretty clearly neither of those things, and so it reads just like any other LLM-written/LLM-polished piece.

[edit: just realised 'willing and able' might sound snarky in some way! All I meant was to acknowledge that even if you can write in a second (or third, etc.) language, you might not want to]

Honestly I'd rather read imperfect english
