If you’re already breaking up over text, you probably aren’t in a position to worry much about how they interpret your typography. And if they haven’t noticed how you normally write there’s even less reason to worry about it.
No, it’s not a thing. There’s a new batch of even stupider than normal language prescriptivists that think they’re the first to come up with the concept, though.
The em dash is just something you can use to diagnose the “AI-ness” of some text, the same way a cough could mean a cold or it could mean something else. You don’t need to be self-conscious about it.

Is this a thing? Shit, I’m now going to be self conscious about using the em.

That’s how you can know that you’re just a simulation.

We’re all in a simulation
Being in the simulation is very different than being the simulation
I’ve seen this video that talks about some signs of AI text and em dash is one of them
