We now have online casinos with corrupt backdoor ties to the Trump family letting people bet on the actions of the Trump family. It's not insider trading anymore. It's just the house's cut (slrpnk.net)

I also use em-dashes on occasion, but I use them right. I can't define how I use them, nor can I conjure up any reasonable uses for one in this comment, but you can tell when it should be there and when it shouldn't. Like, an AI would have replaced the second comma in that sentence with one

In my experience one of the easiest ways that you can disguise AI generated writing is to strip all the em dashes and replace them with either semicolons or make the sentence have a clean break.
