As someone who has retired from the practice of law and billed clients more than 30,000 hours for legal research over the years, I can assure you that soulless corpo-speech has been around far longer than AI and used to be created organically by depressed human drones and sociopaths. Where do you think the AIs learned to write that way?
It’s fine, I use em dashes all the time in papers. If you do it correctly—to add more information or commentary to your overall point—instead of at random and without proper syntax you’re not going to get accused.
Don’t let LLMs take your em dashes; flattening your language to the lowest common denominator to avoid doing anything too distinctive less you be accused of non-authorship… that’s a real harm to you and your reader. If you know how to use them, and enjoy using them, use them fearlessly.
Your writing reflects a higher than normal degree of literacy. Ergo, AI use detected.
This is why I had to quit school.
It’s actually the opposite. AI writing sounds like corpo-speak. It’s soulless, ugly, and extremely obvious.
I’ve spent about 30,000 hours reading in my life. If you think I can’t tell you’re using a token predictor for your “essay,” you’re fucking insane.

Yep, it’s a compliment. Sadly.
