1000%.

I’ve noticed across platforms, posts, texts, etc.

My guess is that there’s been a slow infiltration of “AI powered” autocorrect across the industry.

Other than that, I don’t really have a good answer to the broad, sweeping degradation of autocorrect.

But you’re definitely not the only one.

I suspect this is what's happening. They've gone from a prescriptive 'pre-programmed' autocorrect to a more AI based 'machine learning' one. Hopefully this means it'll eventually improve, although I don't know why it's taking so long.

(I could be wrong about all of this, of course.)
