Em dashes considered a sign of AI-written text (not joking, but hilarious)
I have -- basically since the start of my writing -- extensively used
"--", probably more than I should, but it's a habit and narrative
style punctuation I prefer. I never actually use em dashes myself,
though some platforms will automatically convert "--" to an em dash by
default. I mainly edit in ASCII editors, and of course em dash isn't
even supported there. I also prefer "--" since I know for sure how it
will be displayed to the reader, while there is still less assurance
with em dashes. If em dashes are now considered a sign of AI-written
text due to their use by ChatGPT, etc., that's fairly hilarious. -L
