If we're talking about just using em-dashes and ellipses, yeah. But there are tells, like em-dashes or ellipses in... weird spots, where a human would never use them. Anyways, they also use "anyways" after not going on tangents all the time—and they have an unquenchable thirst for ending a passage with a pithy one-liner.

They haven't beaten the Turing test yet.

    Hey fr though, the issue is that yes, they're trained on human writing, but that training lacks any context, so you have mfs writing stories like passages out of a fanfic when they're posting on /r/TrueOffMyChest. They also aren't real people, so they can't write genuinely realistic stories; it's always "my neighbor secretly left food in front of my door and I ate it for 2 years without knowing anything about them" and "I drove 2 hours both ways for a job paying $16/hr in San Diego"
