The fact you haven’t seen it and that it’s so common in LLM output just means there’s a huge amount of the internet you don’t look at. That could be a good or bad thing—depending on your perspective.

Fwiw, I believe that’s an en dash. Slightly smaller than an em dash (—), but bigger than a hyphen (-).
