      There is much debate about whether the use em-dash is a reliable signal for AI generated content.

      It would be more effective to compare this post with the author’s posts before gen AI, and see if there has been a change in writing style.

        That is not the only sign in that blog post, just the most obvious one.

          Please dish if you feel so inclined. I thought it felt very “blogger who has written a lot of blog posts” but I didn’t get any AI smell.

          I’ve known for a while that one day the day would come when I wouldn’t be able to pick out the AI artifacts, and I’d join the throngs that chase the will o’ wisps through the dead internet. Maybe this is it for me.

            Copy and paste it into an AI detector. Especially the bit about the abstraction tower.
