    Compares emdashes per page in the bill vs the same from the average bill sent to Congress

    This administration is too stupid to write coherently without the aid of AI. It’s a way for them to dress up their low IQ ideas.

    First, I’m almost certain that this article was also partially written by AI. See for example this paragraph obviously copy pasted from Deep Research

    “Overall, a more nuanced view of AI in government is necessary to create realistic expectations and mitigate risks (Toll et al., 2020)”

    What a unique and human thought for a personal blogpost. Also who the fuck is Toll et al, there’s no bibliography.

    Second the authors used Gemini to count em dashes. I know parsing PDF’s is not trivial but this is absurd.

    this article doesn't make any sense. the bill has a lot of em dashes because that's how bills are expressed and it's a large bill. bills in Congress aren't written with em dashes because it can be confusing with the bill syntax and there's not a reason to do it that way
