Oh no! Not Apple autocorrect charging my “than” to “then” and committing a grammar mistake that I didn’t notice until I hit “send”. 🤦‍♂️

@iamdavidobrien Thanks! The gremlins struck again (or at least they’ll take the blame). We’ve had unbelievably good weather during our stay in Skye, the Highlands, Edinburgh, and now Glasgow; we’re headed home tomorrow just after a major heat wave passed through (). We feel very lucky!

In my last post, autocorrect changed Corsi boxes to Coors light boxes…😜So read this tweet from these lovely caring folk, crack open a beer & build that box, then demand that your school district put it in the lunchroom. (one in every room is what you want but everything we do helps.) @Jimrosenthal4

Me: "Siri, add balsamic glaze to my shopping list"

Siri: "Added balsamic gays"

I am never, ever deleting this from my phone!

Yep. It turns out I can edit for a sense making typo and leave a typo in the edit note.

I’m going to blame that one on not my stellar typo skills

Dear Apple - plz let me deactivate autocorrect. Putting it in the iPhone without a way to disable it is close to a crime against humanity

I tend not read the text when I caption a photo. And it’s a very bad habit, very, since the damn is convinced it has the rights to do whatever pleases it. 😡

Thinking about updating my phone to iOS 17 beta in the hope that the autocorrect will finally work. Had to disbable it on iOS 16 as it was so bad it became a hindrance. Can anyone confirm whether it's actually better or not on iOS 17?

It was bound to happen folks. I blame MS Office updates, to be honest. I think they reset my dictionary, or whatever you call the thing where everyone who teaches about or works with the public goes to make sure public is always spelled with an L, and then it always autocorrects other spellings of public across all office apps, including PowerPoint, so that your slides for the first day of class say "Public Focused."
Autocorrect failed.
And it finally happened.

How many people are getting tripped up by being wrong? I'm constantly noticing these things making mistakes.

"Whether it is bicycles" is "it's", "its" is possessive and makes absolutely no bloody sense.

Autocorrect changed “celery” to “celerity.” This can only mean that somewhere, there’s a Gilbert and Sullivan revival well underway

Autocorrect continues to think it knows what I mean. It proves to me that it’s an idiot neural net/AI. To the rest of the world, it proves that I’m the idiot. I’ll be dead, but it will still be here.

Me: trying to type “how did you sleep?”

As a new resident of XXXX W Arthington St, I anticipate more phone conversations like some I’ve had with service ppl recently.

Them: We are at YYYY W Arlington St, but can’t find XXXX.

Me: ArtTHington, with a TH. Not Arlington with an R.

I’ve trained Siri to not wrong, but even where I know I’ve entered it correctly on some form or in a text or email, it gets miscorrected down stream.
