You could write this on a postcard and read it as if it's the card itself saying it and it would more or less work the same way. People are desperate make subjective experience the bright line for humans but you can't actually prove it for other people or disprove it for rocks so it's kind of a moot point.

I was able to infer the invisible quotation marks after a double take, but they probably ought to have been visible ones…

The quotation marks are embedded in the emdashes

the notion that "contains —" ~= "AI generated" is a really dumb popular misconception: dashes have existed for hundreds of years. just because many people use them incorrectly or treat the hyphen as if it's some universal dash doesn't change that.

strunk & white taught me to use em dashes in something like elementary or middle school [1] — it's not hard to understand how to use them or type them... i'm baffled as to why people act like this is the case.

This looks LLM-written. Also, it doesn't match the writing style in your other comment history. However, It could be the difference between an effortpost and a quick thought.

I have also been accused of a robotic writing style, so I don't want to judge too harshly.

No the first paragraph not. It were better if the llm output were in italics though

The first paragraph is GP's human observation; the rest is an LLM sample output specifically chosen to illustrate the observation. It just wasn't explicitly framed that way.

Get this AI slop out of here. It's against the guidelines and nobody wants to see it.
