Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?

  • You mean autocorrect and voice to text stuff and not AI, right? Because this is one area I find the AI to actually be good at while the non-AI versions are just garbage.

    Predictive typing/autocorrect has a nasty habit of changing correct words to entirely different words that do not in any way fit with the context. And I know they look at context, since it will sometimes change a word I wrote 4 words ago when I no longer even notice because I'm looking where I am writing and not 4 words ago.

    • I despise autocorrect. Haven't used it in 10 years probably. Just a normal keyboard for me please
