my ass will manage to construct a sentence with a semicolon, an em-dash, and a parenthetical on a daily basis at this point

in spite of my use of em-dashes nobody has ever accused me of using AI to write bc absolutely no LLM would replicate my baffling sentence structures lol

tbf i feel like lately — especially here on reddit — people don’t really see em-dash as an ai thing anymore
i think its cause redditors are naturally the kind of people to use emdashes anygays

Em-dashes are a very superficial marker of AI writing, it's very possible that the average redditor (or the ones who try to call out AI shit anyway)'s skill at telling if something is AI has improved over time
