  That’s whatever browser or app you’re using. It rendered as © for me… Bracket, c, bracket

    Well, parenthesis, and parenthesis, but yes

      Parentheses can also be called (round) brackets, especially in the UK

  The em dash is a dead giveaway as well

    I try to use em dashes when I can, but I think they’re used wrong in the comment above (IIRC they’re not supposed to be surrounded by spaces, but I could be wrong). What tips me off is the unambiguously “LLM” narrative voice and structure (“let’s break it down”, followed by an ordered list). Not that a human can’t type that, but sometimes it seems like ChatGPT is incapable of spitting out words in any other structure.

      You’re right, en dashes would have been fine there. Em dashes don’t get spaced—and have specific grammatical uses too.

        counter—point ; noone will accuse u of being a Ai if your grammer is shitte in a precise mannor , thou they will gouge ther I:s out when trying to reed it

        actually come to think of it, aren’t homophones/alternate spellings a pretty good way to avoid AI stuff? since they have absolutely no concept of the sounds words make. though i suppose it’ll only work until the models get trained on that data…

    I used to use em dashes all the time and now I find myself rethinking my writing styles because of people like you and it’s obnoxious.

      AI has put me off writing lists.

    I use em dashes all the time, but I don’t put a space on either side—I feel like that’s not the correct way to use one. If it is, I don’t wanna be correct.

    • JacksonLamb@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I concur with this.

    Y’all have got to stop this shit. Real people use real grammar.

  Can’t tell if serious because entering ( c ) without the spaces is ©
