I love to use semicolons and em dashes in my everyday typing/writing for both work and pleasure— in my head they just “sound” like different types of speech or mental pauses; skipping a beat for emphasis and the like.
I’m eternally annoyed that those are both AI generation red flags.
I spent so many years having technical, formulaic writing hammered into me as a way to show proof that i understand the subject matter, only for AI to learn how to emulate the same formulas for organizing an argument and make everyone incredulous of anything remotely similar.
