Kagan MacTane (he/him)<p>This piece makes the good point that &quot;suspicion of the em dash also speaks to our mounting paranoia over automated communication&quot; — we know there are people passing off AI crap as their own writing, and we want to be able to spot it. But the em dash &quot;cannot be a reliable metric of AI reliance for the simple reason that it is a case of the software mimicking *human* writing patterns.&quot;</p><p>h/t <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.bau-ha.us/@raganwald" class="u-url mention">@<span>raganwald</span></a></span></p><p><a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/chatgpt-hypen-em-dash-ai-writing-1235314945/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">rollingstone.com/culture/cultu</span><span class="invisible">re-features/chatgpt-hypen-em-dash-ai-writing-1235314945/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>writing</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/grammar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>grammar</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/EmDash" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EmDash</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/EmDashes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EmDashes</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/AICrap" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AICrap</span></a></p>
Kagan MacTane (he/him)<p>I&#39;ve been writing using em dashes since the 1990s. The reason AI uses em dashes is because it was trained on my writing, and that of countless other humans like me.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/AICrap" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AICrap</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/EmDashes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>EmDashes</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/typography" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>typography</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>writing</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/FuckAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FuckAI</span></a></p>
