    I’ve started to drop using emdashes because AI ruined them–bastards.

      Honestly I don’t think dropping them is a particular loss. I use them in work writing and then in more casual writing if I happen to be using the keyboard I use for that work since I have a key binding for it, but that’s all. The distinction of dash length (or of dashes from hyphens) doesn’t bring anything useful to our writing in my opinion
