🔗 Manuel Moreale: On em dashes

What if they tweak the instructions next week and tell it to use more full stops or commas? What are we gonna do then? Stop using those as well? Hell no. I’ll keep writing however I want, and if someone decides to stop reading what I write because they suspect it’s AI-generated because I use too many em dashes, or parentheses, or any other punctuation or word or whatever, well, good riddance.

My feelings exactly. To stop using em dashes because of AI chatbots seems ludicrous to me.
