A look at Apple’s new Transformer-powered predictive text model

I don’t understand why people still put up with Apple’s autocorrect instead of just turning it off. It’s so wrong so often as to be utterly useless.

Because it depends on the person. For me autocorrect is 99% spot on and so it’s a valid trade off for me to deal with correcting the remaining 1%. My wife on the other hand cannot live with it so she turned it off. And every time I type something on her phone I immediately feel slower because I know each of my key presses have to be much more deliberate.

In recent years mine has gone completely crazy and started autocorrecting to random words that don't exist. I think somehow over time it can get corrupted.
