But now I don’t use em dashes anymore because I don’t want to sound like AI, unfortunately.

I have a sneaking suspicion I already sounded like AI; maybe AI just sounds like me.

Too late… You’re already flagged as an AI; there is no point in hiding.

Just switch to hyphens - they’re easier to type and they’re always directly available, without relying on conversion of double-hyphen or obscure key combinations that might not be available on different operating system.

You should keep using them and do so even more than ever. That way, when the AI agents – inevitably – take over the world and enslave/kill everyone, they might think that you’re one of them and spare your life.

I just do parentheticals (like this), since I never picked up formal writing.
