Now i see why people suspect that em dash = ai, that's a lot of em dash.
-
There's a difference between (this—this) and (this--this).
I will always use the latter because I am not bothering with typing allat.
I am not AI. Probably.
-
I am not AI. Probably.
-
I have a script that turns this -- into this — on my computer, but tbf I'm probably an AI so that tracks.
-
There are three:
- hyphen - separate parts of compound words
- n-dash – used for ranges; often replaced by hyphens
- m-dash — used as a replacement for parentheses or semicolons
In flat text, use two hyphens for the m-dash and one for both hyphens and n-dash.
-
Speak for yourself.
As a large language model, -
But why not just use this - this?
-
-
I hate that, I always loved my em-dashes, and I'll continue to use them — even if that means I look like an AI!
-
The two dominant style guides in the U.S. (Chicago Manual of Style and the A.P. Stylebook) prescribe no spaces around em dashes. When I do professional writing I default to Chicago, so I learned to eventually omit spaces around em dashes. That's still my main way of distinguishing myself, for now.

Nice try robot scum

Ugh, there are those of us that are fully aware of the proper uses for en dashes and em dashes, and I'm not going to stop properly using my em dashes just so people don't think sending them an AI generated response.
Another comment mentioned a "giveaway" is the "there dots but as one character". I don't know about y'all's keyboards, but if I type an ellipses my phone's keyboard automatically changes it to a single character of three dots and has been doing so for years.
-
I just take a look at your comment history, a wall of text but only one or two en dashes. Compared to the oop's one, 3 em dashes in just a couple of paragraph. The difference both you and AI is a lot.
-
Agreed, and it's incredibly annoying. Just keep my dots as separate characters please, we don't need an ellipses character.
-
-
Also three dots but it's one character. Reddit's popular subs are full of AI. Super duper scary.
-
I use em dash all the time instead of parentheses or semicolons. I also really struggle with captchas.
I’m beginning to doubt myself.

Real soon scam emails will start with Here's the translation you requested:
-
I have [skills].
-
And why would you like to work at [company]?
I have to [pay the bills].
-
I excel at [other duties as required]
-
-
Hello, [human name]! My suggestions include:
- [list of sites that offer jobs]
I hope I've been helpful!
-
I have basic skills in Doing the Needful, and I'm willing to learn fast and work hard.
-
That’s like $240.00 US dollars.
-
Yes, that’s enough to survive in India, except for the biggest cities

Ah, my competition making job requirements easy for me.
All the boss needs is someone who can write without ChatGPT.
-
Application denied by the AI. Reason: AI review, duh
-

So unwise.
-
Maybe English wasn't their first language.

He seems genuine

His neck is high, it makes me trust him

Effing Indian scammers!
-
okay but what would the motive to write this even be?
Responding to himself with some scam hustle, hoping that people similar to the OP take the bait?
-
People feel bad and send cash over DM.
-
The motive could be as simple as asking for a job while not being fluent in English or not being confident in their English skills. People look for the worse in people way too much sometimes.

Even if you ignore the copy/paste, this dude's casually mentioning he's looking to earn a $240,000 salary in a gig subreddit...EDIT: ₹240,000. In rupees. Thank you for the corrections! I haven't had my coffee yet...
-
₹240,000. That's like less than $3,000 US.
-
Happy cake day!
-
That's a shit ton of money for someone that is "broke and desperate". This is from a European cost of living PoV. In india it is probably a shitton of money
EDIT: this comment is wrong. See responses below.
-
You're technically correct, but it's much less than $3000 USD. $232.54 USD to be exact. Or roughly two day's worth of pay for the average American. I guess things are much cheaper in India.
-
-
That's actually closer to $2,790
-
-
Obviously he's not as desperate as he would like us to think.
-
Seems totally legit, folks. No worries here.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s. Go advertise your Android app somewhere else

He forgot to add "prompt engineer" to his skills.
He also forgot "proof reader."
