Em dashes aren’t stolen, it’s still clear from the overall voice of the text if it’s AI written or not.

At least, in reasonably long sections of text. I find it can be hard to tell one way or the other in shorter texts (like comments)

Just on HN alone I think I've seen roughly 3948538902748750897520938 mentions of emdashes when others were complaining about slop in the past 2 months. It might as well be the unofficial slop logo. Folks are treating it like a dead giveaway.

I feel like a school friend of mine has been taken from me.

The real dead giveaway is that the writing is bad.

It’s just people who don’t read books outing themselves. Ignore.

Even bookz aee ruined for me now. I was reading careless people and hate all the emdashes even though in a book it's just normal
