@ericfinchsales: Stop using em-dashes in your emails please #sales #techsales #marketing #digitalmarketing #highincomeskills

Mattia Binotto :

I’ve been using an em dash for 20 years. I’m not stopping because AI agrees it’s impactful punctuation.

Kitty :

I went to school for writing and the em dash was absolutely part of required MLA writing standards. This is not new punctuation, and I'm not lowering my writing standards because others are uninformed?

Opinionated, Not Judgmental :

This is obnoxious. AI only uses the em dash because writers have been using it for decades.

Mysterylover 🌻❌🌊 :

I use em dash and never use AI to write. I also type two spaces after a period and use the Oxford comma.

Cameron Larkin :

I refuse to lower my level of writing to exclude em dashes because it so happens to be an “indicator for AI” smh

LiverGiver :

You do realize em dashes existed long before AI, right?

Pickle Biscuit :

Yall know em dashes existed before AI right?

ZetaHyperion☀️ :

Em dash, en dash, and hyphen use — yes all three — is essential in the writing I do.

Adamjmorro :

An em dash (—) is a versatile punctuation mark used in writing to create emphasis, indicate an abrupt change in thought, or replace commas, parentheses, or colons. It is the longest of the standard dashes and gets its name because it is historically the width of the letter "m".

JD Negan :

Dan Delaney :

What’s an m dash?

Chester’s Fireside Chats :

If the use of an em dash is the only way you can detect AI, then you have bigger problems.

bonjour.et.au.revoir :

GenX has been using them since grade school - we will never stop. Has nothing to do with Ai.

Reid :

em dashes existed before Ai

Boboleta :

Em dashes did exist before AI. It is grammatically correct in some contexts hahaha

The Product :

Getting mad at AI for using proper grammar is wild!

Lauren Way :

Nope. Not going to lower my standards. If we all start to think this way, it becomes a problem. Ai uses it because it learned it from us. I will keep it with my Oxford comma, thank you.

frontier_will :

Sounds like a you problem.

Chris Elwood :

people who know how to write do use em dashes

Andrew :

I’ve used an em dash and the Oxford comma for as long as I can remember. But Jeff is Iowa says it’s AI 😂💀

Jordan :

Guess my emails will never make it to you — and I’m okay with that.

Rugby :

I've been using the em dash since forever. I'm tired of people assuming it's AI

WLnamkrow :

Guess why AI uses it...

Someguyinco :

I was using the em dash long before there was AI.

tayeb_yn :

It’s painful as every since i’ve been young i’ve been using - but now i gotta stop cuz of ai
