It's not a zeitgeist, it's a common English sentence structure.
The em-dash observation makes sense. Obviously a minority of people reach for an actual em-dash. The "it's not X, it's Y" complaint is totally bonkers. We might as well call proper spelling a "sign of AI". I.e. yes, AI does it more than humans, but not by so much that it makes sense to be suspicious when you see it.
- toraway 8mo agoNo one actually used that as a red flag except the OP themselves facetiously so that’s a bad example. The AI version of what they wrote would be more like: People have the wrong idea about who is getting fired. It’s not John Ive. It’s Jan ordering coffee.
