I’d feel more considered if I’d gotten no email at all

    I don’t think this is AI tbh. Crap like this is where AI learned to talk like that. I’ve been getting these kind of emails way before LLMs were a thing

      Yeah this screams templated email to me. You don’t need an AI to sound generic, you can just use a generic template. With the number of emails they send out I seriously doubt they want to spend the money on rejection emails generated by an AI.

        There’s no space between the dash though. AI does em dash like – this, and the email did it like–this.

          That’s not an em dash in your comment. In the email it looks to be an em dash.

          Here are the three dashes: em dashes (—), en dashes (–) , and hyphens (-)

          It’s the width that makes the em dash so noticeable in ai content.

            I know, but you know what I meant. It’s the spaces next to the em dash which scream AI. If there aren’t spaces, then it’s probably not AI.

            right, good, that’s also for humans to do. But LLMs exclusively do it that way too.

      I still think this one is AI, but either way the way this worded feels very patronizing. Just a completely hollow message. Should probably cross post to work reform or something.
