This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
If it has the word auto in it i tend to disable, remove or uninstall it. I get frustrated by every half baked implemenation to predict, correct or actson my behalf.
The only thing i mostly tolerate is auto suggest in programming IDEs. But that is on thin ice. The second it hijacks the input system its done.
Since iOS 17, I have had no problems with text input. It feels better than anything that preceded it which I used on Apple or other platforms. That is true for swiping or typing and in either of the two languages I use. I’m actually blown away by how good it is sometime, correcting words based on the clause around it.
I also have an S10 Lite that I keep up to date. The native input there is okay, but not nearly as accurate.
That's my biggest pet peeve, when it auto suggests words that don't exist.
TBH, Microsoft’s Swiftkey was pretty decent before they started adding Bing AI bullshit. I’ve since switched to Apple’s default keyboard and it’s painful.
Autocorrect is slave-mentality
It’s a privacy issue. To predict, the service would have to get to know you better and there are privacy problems with that.
They just can’t seem to figure out a way NOT to be invasive. Go figure.
Oh what. Is that really why? Ffs this is one of the things I'll happily consent to
SwiftKey is dope
I think the major problem is that culture is evolving so rapidly that keyboard dictionaries can't keep up with new words.
