The em dash in particular is being used a lot more thanks to AI. It’s become one of those tells where people start to ask if it’s AI or not.

The em dash is famous but I've noticed since (I think) December every hustler suddenly at once started using drama dots.
Like... That. Rhetorical ellipsis. Like you see in a 12 year old's fanfic.
I know one of the AIs had a style change. I think Grok. But it started using drama dots so now they are everywhere.
And unlike the em dash, _nobody_ notices. _Nobody_ sees it.
The emdash and ellipsis used to be my bread and butter.
I just hope the LLMs don’t come for parenthesis for aside comments.
I'm stating it here before anyone accuses me of being an LLM that I love using fanfic drama dots and I loved them before AI started with it.
