The Am Dash

The Am Dash is a clever idea. It's a little typographic dash you can slip into text that sorta "proves" it's human written, while looking kinda cool. This "proves" it's human written because there is barely any text in the world that uses this so LLMs will (never?) generate text that has "am-" in it instead of a dash. And even if it does, it will render as "am-" not a cool curly dash.
