#autocorrect — Public Fediverse posts

Texting with a friend and meant to say "keep moving and shaking" but iOS really wanted it to be moving and shanking.

That word is not part of my usual vocabulary which makes it extra funny. I know what it is, I've seen enough prison shows/movies. Too funny. Maybe it should be?

And, honestly? Plenty of folks out there who could use a good shanking.

Auto correct on iOS is the biggest crap I’ve ever paid a fortune for.

Autocorrect strikes again. I was trying to send spouse a text that read, "I love you and I'm so glad I have you."

Instead, my phone sent: "I love you bum"

Auivrment sheikh see what ai mean, Apple? Maybe I should just never correct a post and maybe someone will see this and throw me a life saver. Haha. Sigh.

That was meant to say achievement unlocked. But now I forgot which one. #apple #autocorrect #help

A minister, a priest, and a rabbit walked into a bar.

"What'll you have?" the bartender asked the rabbit.

"I have no idea," the rabbit replied. "I'm only here because of autocorrect."

What are your thoughts on autocorrect? Love it? Hate it? Somewhere in between?

En ole maailman paras kirjoittaja, mutta haluan tehdä tietäväksi:

Jos joku viestini näyttää täysin sekavalta, niin todennäköisin syy on että kännykän autokorjaamo ei ole tunnistanut sanaa (tässä tapauksessa "löytää") ja päättänyt vaihtaa sen johonkin toiseen.

En voi sanoa kuinka paljon minulle merkitsee ettei näihin ole mastossa kiinnitetty huomiota. Samaa ei voi sanoa yhdestäkään muusta yhteisömediasta mihin olen osallistunut.

I thought a good shake of the peppermill would make a difference, but scrambled eggs are just bland without a pinch of salt.

My autocorrect suggested peppermint instead of peppermill, so there's a thought for the future.

#psa I'm systematically turning off autocorrect. As an #author, it's become increasingly evident that the word choices autocorrect makes to correct misspellings are dependent on a weakness of #AI. Whatever your feelings about the tool, without curation, machine learning uses frequency of occurrence to make choices once it matches patterns from your input. It picks trending words, not necessarily your words from your individual vocabulary. On the #Apple Platform with Apple Intelligence turned off, autocorrect does not learn from my word choices as an #sf and #fantasy writer; it inserts words from the Internet (my best guess) that most frequently correct the misspelling I've presented it.

This leads to frequently inserting a correctly spelled wrong word. I'm a touch typist; I don't look while writing. If I miss similar sounding words during revision, I can end up writing things unintended and, often enough, embarrassing.

This is why I am turning autocorrect off.

Fortunately, misspellings are still underlined in red.

Probably most people writing & taking note of autocorrect ‘suggestions’ have noticed something like this (at the least, bias in what’s suggested). This research seems like a really interesting, extremely important, original study & it’s distressing that (from the abstract):
“ the influence of the AI writing assistant was stronger than the influence of similar suggestions presented as static text, showing that the influence is not fully explained by these suggestions, increasing accessibility of the biased information. Last, warning participants about assistants’ bias before or after exposure does not mitigate the attitude-shift effect.”

Cross The Toad?

Question eOS, ou Android j'en sais trop rien. J'ai désactivé le correcteur orthographique dans les paramètres mais en fait ça me corrige toujours. Il y a des menus cachés par application ? Une formule magique à prononcer un soir de pleine lune ?

C'est soûlant quand j'écris "re" et qu'il corrige en "le" 👿

Le repartage éloigne la canicule.

Tuli muuten mieleen, että kirjoittelin tänään opiskelijalle viestin: ”Don't come to school when Dick”. (Hän oli ilmoittanut olevansa nuhassa ja kysyi, tuleeko silti.) #autocorrect #opejuttuja

I've finally convinced #Autocorrect that I'm unlikely to say "I don't give a **water bird**."

Now for the rare occasion when I want to keep my duck.

Heh, reminds me of circa 2001, when I had a coworker named "Grace Teh." MS Word LOVED her last name. XD

Come to think of it, that's probably when I adopted the silly tendency to accentuate things with misspelling, all-caps, and underscores, like TEH_GREATEST. XD

That was actually the first time I ever saw #AutoCorrect. Word didn't just red-squiggly-line her name, it instantly corrected Teh to The, and I had to learn to hit ctrl-z right after typing her name. ;)

Apple autocorrect: I have never and will never use the word "Shiftiness." I often use the word "shittiness," however.
