Found a video guide to spotting posts written by LLMs. Thought it might be useful. (www.youtube.com)

TL;DR for AI writing warning signs:

Use of the em-dash (—)
Parallel sentence structure (e.g. "It's not just X, it's Y")
Grouping things in threes or at least odd numbers
Delineating line breaks with emojis
Odd/unnatural verbiage
Overuse of filler words (talking like your average LinkedIn post)
Exaggerated and empty praise
Weird analogies and similes
Restating and overclarifying points

TL;DR for signs something was written by a human:

Including anecdotes
Written in the first person
Tangents and nonlinear storytelling

It’s “em dash” and there shouldn’t be spaces around it. FYI.

I‘m German … in German we connect words with small dashes and put spaces around the larger ones … it’s the habit :)
