Well it's a filter - if the cover letter sounds bad, then just reject the applicant. That's the role of cover letters; it's to get you to read the resume, which is to get you interested in the applicant. Or ignore cover letters like many companies do. We do have a lot of non-native speakers here who say "I'm using AI because my English is not good". I think that's fine to add to the AI cover letter. I suppose it's also fair to ask them to resend a human written cover letter. Some people spam, some legitimately care.
