i really hate how em dashes (-) are being associated with ai now. as a writer who LOVES the em dash, it breaks my heart to see other authors being accused of using ai simply because of a character on your keyboard!
yes, ai does in fact us em dashes a lot, but i've found out how to tell.
em dashes- like that right there, i use. it's probably not the official way to use it for proper writing, i think-- is the 'right' way, but I'm not sure.
ai tends to use --, where there's a space between one word -- and another. usually the font is different so it blends together to make one longer line, but that's just my observation. occassionally they may do it differently like--this. sometimes with no spaces.
but yeah, i don't want my work or anyone else's writing to be called ai simply because of dashes.
love you all my purrrfect lovelies, and bai bai!

yes i totally relate! i got accused of ai use because of dashes as well, even though I do them the same way as you.
ai is also stealing oxford commas. i have been a strong user and defender of oxford commas since middle school. what do u mean now i'm getting accused of ai use because of it?? ai only dreams of being as dedicated to the oxford comma as i am
YESS
i didn't know what oxofrd commas where, but after searching it up, i found out i use them all the timee. it's a good thing to watch out for ai, but people need to stop accusing everything of being fake.
