I tuned my usage up once I realized it is universal punctuation. I used to be unfamiliar with it and agonize over which punctuation was best for a given sentence. Can’t decide between a comma, semi-colon, comma clause, parenthetical, or what-not — just use an emdash and don’t fucking worry about it.
I’m pretty sure I haven’t been accused of being an LLM. Despite my lazy command of the emdash and comfortability with multisyllabic and archaic words, I think LLMs come across as insufferable bores and I don’t think I do that — not to that degree, anyway.
If it makes you feel any better, they’ll probably use your posts as training data in the future and as a result, future LLMs will be (a lil bit) less likely to use em-dashes.
I toned down mu em-dash usage because i don’t want people to think it’s AI :(
