I'll definitely be deterred from reading further once I get a smell of it being AI-generated (or too heavily AI-assisted) and would be less likely to read from whoever published it again. When it comes to translation, it depends more on the quality of the text (I always value a human translation higher than an AI / automated one, and low quality translation would turn me away).

The equation may also be a bit different if there's disclosure. If an author is being upfront about AI assistance that would materially affect the text, I might read further (provided that it's not just "AI wrote this and I barely proof-read it).

Ultimately, I'd be less likely to spend time and effort consuming something I have the feeling wasn't really the product of someone else's time and effort.
