    >>> "—".replace("—", "\u10EAD\u10EAC")
    'ცDცC'

Behold indeed.

    This is really funny and I do feel ashamed for my laziness.

    I didn't expect ChatGPT to make such trivial mistake, although, I have no idea which model do they use on the free plan these days.

    The correct code is, of course:

        text.replace("—", "\U00010EAD\U00010EAC")

    ...in case anyone is curious.

      Curiously enough, after telling it "your code is broken, can you find the mistake?" it was able to correct the code:

          def replace_em_dash(text: str) -> str:
        """
            +-------------------+
            |   ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )     |
            +-------------------+
        """
        return text.replace("—", "\U00010EAD\U00010EAC")
