If I (non native English speaker) write a blog post it will be shit English and won’t read “smoothly”. Then ChatGPT makes it nice and smooth. I check if my intentions are left unaltered and then post. For professional stuff I used to ask my American colleague, now I don’t have to bother her anymore.
I don't see it as confessing their sins, more like "FYI, I used X tool to help me with Y" like you'd see "Page generated by Z" in a footer except in a header since it's related to the content itself. Unless you're writing an assignment for an English class I don't think anyone would feel lied to if they found out you had help from an AI translator.
