There are actually good ways to try and detect AI-generated content, but the whole “em-dashes implies generated content” approach is intellectually lazy. Hint: check for fixed-width space characters, weird Unicode hyphens, zero-width joiners, ellipsis characters, right and left quotation marks, etc.

Oh. @jfbastien.com taught you well.

I regularly use two or three types of quotes!!!

@patigallardo.bsky.social added a turtle to LinkedIn so scrapers would clearly stand out 😂
