At least they removed all the em dashes

Why does everyone seem to regard the em dash as an instant LLM-indicator? Many real people—me included—use them regularly. Yes, LLMs use them—perhaps too much—but many so-called "AI-tells" come from training data—real text written by real people.

Why the hell would you type a em dash.

Why the hell would you use punctuation?

You can just use a dash - a human "mistake" that basically doesn't matter.

90% of users don't even know how to make an em dash


hence, llm indicator.
