- K0balt 8mo agoI’ve been rounded up for things I wrote two decades ago because of my em dashes lol. The pitchfork mentality gives me little hope for how things are going to go once we have hive mind AGI robots pervasive in society.
- vova_hn2 8mo agoIf I was operating a bot farm, at this point I would probably add some bots that go around and accuse legit human users (or just random users) of being bots. Created confusion and frustration will make it much harder to separate signal from the noise for most people.
- SoftTalker 8mo agoI once spent some time learning the proper usage of em-dashes, en-dashes, and hyphens, and tried to be conscientious about using them properly in my writing. Little did I know it would be wasted effort in the LLM era, when competent writing actually became a negative. Not only are we losing the ability to communicate clearly without the assistance of computers, those who can are being punished for it.
