Em dashes (—) used to be a rough litmus test for detecting AI generated content. Even though there are many false positives to this classifier, it is in general a good feature in predicting confidence for AI slop text.

That's not just a predictor of AI slop. That's a predictor for what you should or shouldn't give your attention to.
