    i use both em and en dashes, though I’m a graphic designer so I guess I’m more interested in typography than the average person. but i always liked using them. learning that it was a telltale sign of AI writing was really disappointing.

      I liked to sprinkle em dashes into my essays bc they can be quite nice for the flow of a sentence. I’m so glad I graduated a few years ago bc if LLMs had been a big thing the entire time I was at college my profs would have always suspected me of using them :(
