Do you mean it’s written by AI?

Or just my writing style?





Not the writing style, but the fact that the em-dashes and strange ticks make it indistinguishable from something AI-generated. At least take the time to replace them with something you can produce easily on a physical keyboard.

Edit:

Well, actually - this kind of writing style does feel quite AI-ish:

The em dashes didn't strike me as LLM because they had spaces on either side, something I don't typically see in LLM outputs as much. But the quote you highlighted is pretty much dead-on for LLM "speak" I must admit. In the end though, I think this is human written.

It might be a Windows vs. MacOS/Linux thing, but regardless - it's becoming a similar kind of pattern that I'm subconsciously learning to ignore/filter out, similar to banner blindness and ads/editorials.

Why does it produce different ticks and em-dashes?
