“Google Says AI Content is Fine… So Why Are AI Sites Still Getting Crushed?”

Stop publishing over a 100 pages at a time, and you will be fine. If you hit that SPAM filter, just forget about that website. You have to stay below the threshold.

i am curious how this will work in the future because there will be no handwritten articles anymore soon. Everything written will be at least have some AI parts.

Everyone keeps repeating that Google is okay with AI content—as long as it’s “helpful.” But let’s be honest… how many AI-heavy sites have you seen survive recent updates?
I’ve tested this across multiple niches:
Pure AI sites → indexed fast, then wiped out
AI + light human editing → lasts a bit longer, still drops
Fully human-written → slow growth, but stable rankings
So what’s really going on?
Is Google quietly flagging AI patterns despite their public stance?
Or is the real issue that most people are just pumping out low-effort AI junk?
Here’s the controversial part:
I’m starting to think AI content itself isn’t the problem…
The problem is that AI makes it too easy to mass-produce mediocrity
And Google is getting better at detecting that, not just AI.
Curious what others are seeing—
Are you ranking AI content long-term, or just riding temporary traffic spikes?
Why this works:
Challenges Google’s public claims
Invites real case studies (engagement bait)
Positions you as someone testing, not guessing
Sparks debate between “AI believers vs skeptics”

Google really does not prohibit AI content as such, but sites are punished not for the very fact of using neural networks, but for low quality, spam and manipulation of search results. Google’s official position is that content is evaluated according to E-E-A-T criteria (experience, expertise, authority, trustworthiness), regardless of who wrote it - a person or a machine.
 
I think it's the quality, not the AI. the sites adding real value seem to hold up better.
 
Same google keeps deleting YouTube channels cos they keep bringing up new policies to help them maintain a certain status quo

It's not a problem with AI, the problem is that your prompt words are fixed, and the articles you write are similar to garbage stacks. You don't use AI deeply, just think about simple stacking to obtain articles. In fact, the articles you write with AI, you yourself dislike garbage

Why would Google's clever algorithm rank you? So it's not Ai's problem, it's that you need to use AI more deeply, treat AI as a polishing tool, and focus on manual labor.
 
I think AI itself isn't the issue. The bigger problem is people using it to publish hundreds of generic articles without adding anything useful. AI-assisted content can still work, but it needs proper research, editing, and real value instead of just scaling output.
 
My takeaway so far is that AI is best treated as a production assistant not a substitute for research, expertise and editorial judgment.
