After viewing this video six times, I'd like someone to explain to me how the program knew to autocomplete "z" into "zippers" without consulting the users. Could it be that they've trained it for this specific sentence, making this entire video meaningless at best and a fraud at worst?

That video is just auto-complete after the first letter...

Yes, it's a practice application with pangrams, with the auto-complete turned on. Here's a video of a speed test with everything turned off: http://youtu.be/xigziUyUcrM (good point to get this more visible on the website)
