Don’t get me wrong, i like using dashes too.
I actually have a contract to sign which requires an em dash that changes the interpretation drastically. I am struggling to get the author to realise its importance because i received 3 updated versions that did not include it. And this is after i replied with a self-fixed document the first time.
But this article really does use them a lot, and thats not the only tell, just a more obvious one.
I dont know how accurate zerogpt is but i gave it the full text and they returned 100% ai writen, not even a mix.
