There has been a slow drop since September 12. Today I see many top pages has lost rank completely.

Well, Google released the spam update yesterday, which might have caused it. Is your content spammy?

I don't think so. Most of them are info blogs, top 10 blogs etc

That doesn't mean quality content. Is your content spammy/low quality?
I'm facing the same issue. From yesterday i lost more than 50% of my traffic. I don't have a spammy website, all content is hand written by me and i never had any kind of issue so far (the site is 3 years old).
I'll wait few days, i hope it'll recover its previous rank. Finger crossed

Top 10 blogs are manually written. Info blogs are writing using AI then manually edited. Should I edit them with videos, charts, images and texts? What do you suggest?

Check GSC for any messages.
Losing ranking completely is some kind of penalty that hit you.

I do not see any manual actions there, pages are still indexed but not ranking.

This is Google nowadays. Updates every month, similar sites - one gets hit, another gets a boost. I feel like they're just doing it randomly.

Then you have decent chances to have your rankings restored, google is messing around.
I wouldn't edit the content. Just publish as usual and see how things progress.

Same thing happened to one of my sites. Lost all rankings including Brandname.
I think it's something to do with low effort backlinks
What kind link building were you doing?

Made no backlink in 1-2 years. Got natural backlinks from weird sites though.

They shall be ignored by Google. Every site gets links from spam sources.
