Re:Keyboard lets people type so fast it’s banned from typing... by lukevp on Thursday January 06, 2022 @03:37PM (#29829728)
Yes but the accuracy percentage is low because the software’s essentially guessing what he’s typing (not unlike swype keyboards + autocorrect on a phone though implemented differently). It would be way slower to correct errors and type at 100% accuracy because each error has to be corrected based on some cognitive process (like looking at autocorrect suggestions for example) which is far far slower than correcting a typo in a QWERTY keyboard. I can type around 110 WPM with 95% or higher accuracy and I can also feel the majority of typos I make and correct them without active thought.
