๐Ÿšจ NEW AI RED FLAGS IN COPY ๐Ÿšจ โ†’ writing in all lowercase โ†’ Capitalizing the first letter of a sentence โ†’ Using โ€œitโ€™s not X, itโ€™s Yโ€ โ†’ the em-dash!!!!!!!! โ†’ Having thoughts that make sense โ†’ Being grammatically correct โ†’ Writing like someone whoโ€™s seen sunlight โ†’ Literally, *any* sign of literacy Apparently, if you use WORDS now, youโ€™re a robot. At this point, the only way to โ€œsound humanโ€ is to type like youโ€™re having a stroke: โ€œ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜บ. ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ด๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ. ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜บ. ๐˜ฃ๐˜ถ๐˜บ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ.โ€ Congratulations everyone, weโ€™ve bullied writers into reverse evolution. Weโ€™ve officially reached the โ€œSalem Witch Trialsโ€ of writing. If you breathe near an em-dash, youโ€™re getting burned at the stake.
