Why do they use AI?

Because they lack knowledge of the subject matter.

Why do they struggle to spot misinformation?

For the same reason.

The AI paradox --- Results are probabilistic and inherently unreliable. The only rational way to spot inevitable shortcomings is research and learn the subject matter --- so you don't need to rely on AI results.

If the results are really important, accepting what AI provides at face value is a recipe for catastrophe.
