This clearly demonstrates once again that Google is miles ahead of the competition in AI. I mean, they just have the best data.

If you want to have an every day example of Google's AI skills: Switch you phone's keyboard to GBoard, especially all iOS users, and you will face a night and day difference to any other keyboard esepcially the stock one. When using multiple languages at the same time the leap to other keyboards gets even bigger.

GBoard is my phone's killer app and if Google dropped it for iOS I'd left the same day to Android.

That's how I used to feel, but it's turning into a nuisance.

It used to stick to single words or sometimes splitting one if missing a space, but now will sometimes attempt to "correct" the sum of two perfectly valid standalone words after the fact, 97% of the time resulting in nonsense.

I cannot for the life of me understand why.

I have the opposite experience. Yes, some of the suggestions from GBoard are useful, but I feel there's an equal number of times where I've typed a complete word, only to hit space and have the word auto-corrected to what GBoard was expecting. As a typing aid, it's almost unusable because of that.

Have you tried the iOS 13 keyboard's built in swipe feature?

Are you aware of Swiftkey?

I think GP is talking about predictive text, rather than keyboard ergonomics.
