In 99% of cases you're better off with A Bad Decision than with everybody idling waiting for a decision, or with a decision that continues being litigated six ways by four people, or with a decision that you feel is temporary.

An AI flyer is a brown M&M test. If your event or business is cutting corners by using an AI flyer, where else are you cutting corners? What else are you cheating out on? Why should I be bothered to go somewhere you couldn't be bothered to promote with a little of your own personality?

working w/ ai translation is an actual waste of time. it will never translate in-game terminology properly, which means combing through all of the text two or three more times checking context and terms which already adds to expected crunch. and you can always tell when it's being used.
