There is a clear and sudden transition on this blog where prior to a certain date there are zero instances of the em-dash and then suddenly it appears like crazy. Like look at his archived posts from 2023, absolutely no em dashes... now look at every post from 2025 and almost every single one of them are literred with them.

If this line wasn't written by a LLM I'll eat my hat.
I swear being online these days feels like being one of the dog handlers from the Terminator.
The fact that the average person is seemingly incapable of detecting LLM text drives me insane. Every aspect of that article screams LLM. The tone, the punctuation, the sentence structure, the overall structure, it's so incredibly obvious. But the average person really is oblivious to it.
why?
Before comments about LLM I didn't notice this. After I compared pre-LLM posts and post-LLM and looks like AI was used to write/edit this article.
But.. why should I matter? Why my ignorance of this fact insane you?
Like "These Artemis 2 photos were generated by AI" is wrong but "The broadcast footage of the Apollo missions was generated by AI" is incredibly stupid and I want to understand if I'm about to engage with an incredibly stupid opinion.
