That for some reason uses em dashes and writes in a voice that at times I find hard to distinguish from AI.

Man, I'm tired. Are people just lying? Am I just seeing things? Some mystery third option? Is it meta commentary?

Everything is poisoned.

I suppose it feels incorrect regardless of actual AI use, because it's still the LinkedIn thought leader template with relevant current issue.

Which is interesting, because it is so meta.

It has it all. It has the SpongeBob meme for relatability, it has the vague call to action (mindfulness, lmao) at the end. Ugh. Man.

You'd be surprised that there are folks on this planet who love em dashes. I'm one of them and I used to write a lot with em dashes, but stopped using it altogether in the past few years because of AI.

		Yes but if I am aware enough of the current landscape on the web to put a "written by a human" disclaimer, I am also aware enough of the fact that current em dash perception rightfully isn't very good. So exactly what you said. You've stopped because you know how it will be perceived. There is something not checking out with that blogpost is what I'm saying. Things do not feel organic. Which can be AI, but also can be lots of other things, but regardless of that, it smells. ___ Googling the author tells me that they perhaps might just be trying a bit too hard to be taken seriously. Oh well. But anyway Smell is there. Intent is unclear

I have to resist the urge to troll my friends by writing something intionally in the style of AI, just because I find the "AI Style" to be so ugly and annoying. I don't want to cause any more psychic irritation to my friends and family though so I don't do it.
