You'll be typing or doing some speech to text and you can see that you can go a whole sentence and then suddenly autocorrect will go back and change five words within the sentence. so it's obviously trying to determine the context it thinks you're trying to say and expressing that. The only problem is it gets it really wrong.

And if you just arbitrarily hit send you're going to be sending out a message you didn't intend to send and who has time to look over every damn thing they post? I sure don't. You got 10 seconds to maybe pop a message out and you really kind of assume that the machine is not going to rewrite your whole message and so you hit send.

I would really like to get back to the way that a machine would just let you send a mistype to word I would rather have a mistyped word go out than an actual word I didn't mean to say or even a whole phrase I didn't mean to say.

because like I said autocorrect now I've caught it several times going back over a sentence that I've just completed and it gets the whole sentence and it thinks you meant to say something else and it'll literally change four or five words in the whole sentence and you can watch it happen.

It really means that you should probably take the time to really oversee every damn message you right because it's like you've got a little demon in your computer that's f****** with every message you write and purposely trolling you and screwing around with what you're trying to say.

And I literally watched autocorrect do that with this message as I was typing it.

When Elon Musk took over Twitter—now X—in October 2022, the tech world braced for disruption. But no one anticipated just how brutal, personal, and messy the clash between the billionaire and the company’s own developers would become. What followed was a wave of layoffs so abrupt it felt like a purge, public spats with former employees, and a growing rift between Musk and the very engineers who once kept Twitter running.
