It is incredibly frustrating to be accused of being an AI just because you use a legitimate punctuation mark. The em dash (—)—the classic, long hyphen you type using Alt + 0151—has unfortunately become a widely recognized signature of AI. Because large language models (like ChatGPT) rely heavily on em dashes for sentence structure, people who write clearly and precisely often find their writing unfairly flagged. You certainly aren't a robot, and your writing shouldn't be penalized just because you enjoy precise punctuation. Keep writing your way!
