My favorite apple auto correct: changing the word before the one you just finished. You mentally verify that it’s correct, type the next word, auto correct fucks up the next word and then retroactively fucks up the word you already moved on from. Absolutely brilliant interface.
Yes that is definitely what I was going for, thank you

this is especially awesome when the first word has already been erroneously “corrected” and then manually fixed. and then apple decides to “correct” the first word again after you type the second word.

It astounds me that we have AI shoulder into every aspect of our lives… except auto correct.

Apple’s autocorrect is based on GPT, of chatGPT fame, but it’s the GPT2 model which came out around 2015. Back then it ran on supercomputers, now it fits in your pocket. ChatGPT uses the GPT4 model which requires really big supercomputers for now.

That’s to train it. Even the most modern version of AIs like deepseek or get can run on a raspberry pi.

My phone will not let me type ‘was’ without trying to autocorrect it to SAS. I’ve told it not to suggest SAS multiple times, but no luck. Swiping always works, though, so it’s only when I press each key.

This is the one use of LLMs I actually really want, smarter text prediction!

Huh, that’s weird.
It just keeps trying to sell me a credit card instead.

my phone occasionally decided to “correct” “that” to “thar”, it is deeply annoying
biggerbogboy@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
For me it corrects ‘that’ to ‘thst’ all the time, I wish the was some way to whitelist and blacklist words
shneancy@lemmy.world 2 months ago
you can technically unteach your autocorrect a word but you do have to catch it trying to “correct” it and longtap the culprit, which can be tricky when it only happens sometimes and you have a habit of typing fast

The best was on the old T9s where you’d try to type mum, but its first choice would be nun.

Whatever algorithm Google search uses is 1000% better than whatever GBoard does.
Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Sometimes I think heliboard uses the same algorithm
brachypelmasmithi@lemm.ee 2 months ago
it really does seem like it, though at least it doesn’t get worse on multi-language setups, which i thought would happen but thankfully didn’t (at least for me)
Vespair@lemm.ee 2 months ago
What’s 100x more annoying is when you type a real word but they decide you must have meant something else. That shit makes me bonkers
Gonzako@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Gets way worse when doing multilanguage setups
