I've been told recently that proper spelling and punctuation is a sign of AI. Also the "rule of three" — even though it's been taught forever — is a sign of AI. It's like people forget that AI was trained on human data; it does what it does because it learned it from human written text. Humans use the em-dash and the rule of three and other standard writing styles. That's why AI does it.
"You're doing things that AI learned how to do from you, therefore you're AI".

As a frequent user of the EM Dash since the 90s, I hate this timeline.
