I don’t see it, it doesn’t seem tonally consistent with the LLMs. Is it just because he put bullet points or something? Because it’s slightly longer than normal?
Bullet points are trivial in markdown - simply start a line with a dash and a space, although you can bugger up things by not leaving blank lines before and after.
I also do use em-dashes — because I can. I use wincompose to give me the linux compose key under windows. Although I will sometimes intentionally remove em-dashes from my writing precisely because of this assumption it causes.
I also have severe ADHD, and while sometimes I just write freeform and beware to the poor reader, sometimes I have an LLM tighten up the writing so the neurotypicals aren’t scared or confused by my rambling.
But even in such cases, I write everything first.
I believe in that particular instance, I might have copy/pasted the last bullet point from somewhere, but I wrote everything else and that is not through an LLM.
Everyone has different skills, and writing is one I’m not totally afraid to say is a moderate talent of mine. Sometimes.
Replying to your comment because it felt more natural, but it’s to the conversation in general. :)
Rereading it, there is a good chance I’m the asshole here, but the basic reasons were a paragraph, followed by bullet points, followed by a paragraph. That’s a very common format for ChatGTP. As well, the use of emdashes in general, specifically where most people would use a comma. What really leads me to think I might be the asshole here is his use of “But” to start a sentence. It’s pretty common in informal righting, but really uncommon in the type of formal writing that ChatGPT loves to produce.

Looks like typed as hyphens, and LLMs tend to produce emdashes.
I think the intro/bullet point/conclusion format is pretty common among humans.
