>the weird AI dash thing is because indians love using the dash
>>107608887You mean the em- and en-dash?Better theory I've heard is that the LLMs were trained on a shit load of published material including journal articles, conference proceedings, doctoral dissertations, masters thesis(es?). All of which have a certain style that includes the use of the em- and en-dash.
>>107609054IDK I'm not indian so I use a semicolon or a comma instead of the indian dash
>>107608887You could just tell it not to use em dashes in your prompt
>>107608887And the reason for the verbosity is the reinforced feedback was trained by Kenyans.
>>107609187I think the fact it's trained off indians is bad enough
Whenever I google literally any random topic like "what is vocaloid" and the autofill suggestions go "what is vocaloid in hindi" "what is vocaloid in telugu"

All of which have a certain style that includes the use of the em- and en-dash.It's that.I'm autistic and use em dashes quite a bit when writing formally. I love the semicolon and used to use brackets and parentheses when growing up. As I got older I fell out of the habit retaining the bracket only for defining acronyms and defining sarcasm in text; sometimes I still use a good old (!) like they do on teletext.Otherwise, when formally writing I'll use it, when a sentence breaks up into 3 parts but it's an aside in the middle of a sentence. That's purely so they understand the pause should be there rather than adding a comma, forever, and, ever— the oxford comma exists for a reason after all— and unless it's the end of a sentence the semi-colon is better in general; with the semicolon having a more defines ruleset for use.What I almost never do however is use it at the end of a sentence in place of a semicolon as that's a vibe based writing and while it's not an incorrect use... it is in a lot of publications be it medical, a romance novel from the 50's or some cunt in the times.I had a government worker get triggered over an em dash this month. They assumed because I was verbose, autistic and I used it correctly to avoid using a semicolon 3 sentences in a row that I must have used generative AI to write it. Well joke's on them: they didn't parse the paragraph properly because of their massive, gaping, literacy issues. FUCK EM ALL
>>107609289In case you're concerned this was written by AI and not some retard who just woke up>unless it's the end of a sentence the semi-colon is better in general; with the semicolon having a more defines ruleset for use.I would hope that a bot wouldn't accidentally add the hyphen in out of habit.
>>107609289>uses indian dashes and the bong commaeither your indian, autistic, a homo or all 3
>>107608887the em dash is due to academic writing retard
>>107609301>either your indian, autistic, a homo or all 3>I'm autisticI wonder which it is...Crippling autism looks fun to the outsider only because they don't have to live with the consequences.
>>107609315the bong comma is for homos
>>107609054Apparently that's very common. It's weird because I personally always preferred to use semicolons for that purpose.
>>107609334>bong commabritish?
>>107609404where do you think oxford is?
>>107609289If you use em dashes unironically you're a pedantic dipshit or an LLM-hugging jeet. In either case your opinion should be discarded.
