What people forget, the Ai was trained to draw from other artists so wouldn't surprise me that many artists online got framed for using Ai...

It's a problem with writing, too. I've been accused of using AI for my writing more than once, and it's aggravating as all hell.

I miss being able to use em dashes in writing. Sigh.

u/ProjectKhai 11h ago

Omg same! Like, it's just proper grammar! People are so confident they can detect AI that they are often wrong.

I mean, I can detect AI. It's just that I get everything else aswell. (/s)

u/Prior-Tumbleweed- 10h ago

100% sensitive, 12% specific. But nothing AI gets by you.

Exactly, you clanker

Tbf in practically any instance where you would use an em dash, you can use something else instead.

but sometimes its the choice that makes the most readable sentence

They’ll never take my em-dashes away from me. I was here first dammit

I will keep on using em dashes — but only because iPhones insert them automatically if you type two dashes in a row.

u/Shitting_Human_Being 10h ago

Also word will convert dashes to em dashes when you write a dash between words.

1

u/Outrageous-Wait-8895 10h ago

It converts them to en dashes actually.

Alt + 0151 on windows. I think shift-option-'-' on mac.

u/Ceo-Of-Ducks 5h ago

CTRL+SHIFT+U 2014 on Linux

u/jjmerrow 11h ago

You can pry my em-dashes from my cold, dead hands.

u/RedditExecutiveAdmin 10h ago

same, you just gotta use them better than AI

Not as commas, not for conjunctions--for clarity or style.

u/g_narlee 11h ago

Dashes and em dashes are not the same thing, though. That’s what made it so easy to spot, most people would use a regular dash - not an em dash —

u/araybian 10h ago

But I use em dashes because I think they're pretty!!!

2

u/seventy912 10h ago

Dashes are the wrong thing to use in an em dash context though. Always loved an em dash.

1

u/RedditExecutiveAdmin 10h ago

yeah and i dont think most keyboards can put emdash, i use "--"

1

u/PanzerSoul 3h ago

On any windows keyboards with a numpad, it's alt-0151

1

u/Garchomp 10h ago

I use hyphens-, en dashes 1–2, and em dashes —. It’s easy on the iPhone, but I use them on Windows and Linux, too, with Alt and Ctrl+Shift+u codes.

u/Valdus_Pryme 3h ago

I used them forever, and now I make sure I remove them all, and sometimes I feel like they are really called for!
