After 40-50 AI iterations per document, what's the point of AI detectors like Pangram?

User kfountou questions the point of AI-text detector Pangram: she iterates 40-50 times with AI on a document to get it to read the way she likes, then makes manual edits — yet it could still be flagged as AI-generated. "The only thing that matters is if the document is well-written."
The post highlights the growing tension between AI detectors and real human-AI collaborative writing workflows: deep co-writing has blurred the line of "AI-generated" content, and detection tools' criteria face practical challenges.
