Aibohphobia (fear of palindrome)
I’m so not getting the joke, I’m wondering if I’m a spoon or a person.
apparently AI often uses the long dash — and people began associating it with AI generated text. which tbf, valid, i only know where it is on my mobile keyboard and i ain’t writing anything longer than 3 paragraphs on a phone,
Now I’m a person.
Maybe you’re a spoon—person.
Oh. I get it now.
Still possibly a spoon, though.I thought there was no spoon.
Maybe. Pourquoi tu pues du tron?

If it were real, we would have proof the scientists are just fucking with us.
Oh, you have no idea… 🤣
Is that an em-dash?
Idk what em dash means. The AI use — this in replies often. So it would be ironic if it is in the phobia name.
It is an em-dash. So it’s like George says “That should be techno” and has the random thoughts of “phobia”.
And, yep, the LLMs use them incorrectly too. ChatGPT notoriously.
I just learnt the difference, an em-dash is as long as an m and used for other things than the shorter en-dash (as long as an n).
Em-dashes are more common in literature, which a lot of AI is trained on, rather than online speak where it’s annoying and difficult to notice the difference between - and — (and not to be confused with –).
I wouldn’t even know how to type them, my keyboard only has the - dash.
On Linux you can set a compose key, press it and then do 3 consecutive dashes (—) for an m-dash, and 2 consecutive dashes with a dot at the end (–.) for an n-dash.
what about Alt±?
Not on my Windows machine.
Technophobai.
Is it still just a phobia if the AI really is sneaking in every — where?
