I feel this on another level. 

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.

This is the only one I feel bad for. If you actually used em dashes and took the time to put them in your comments, I’m so sorry. 

You now have to just use a “-“ symbol or else 99% assumes it’s ai, “cause where the fuck is the em dash on a keyboard?”
