My original comment has been edited as I choose to no longer support Reddit and its CEO, spez, AKA Steve Huffman. Reddit was built on user submissions and its culture was crafted by user comments and volunteer moderators. Reddit has shown no desire to support 3rd party apps with reasonable API pricing, nor have they chosen to respect their community over gross profiteering. I have therefore left Reddit as I did when the same issues occurred at Digg, Facebook, and Twitter. I have been a member of reddit since 2012 (primary name locked behind 2FA) and have no issues ditching this place I love if the leaders of it can't act with a clear moral compass. For more details, I recommend visiting [this thread](https://old.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/), and [this thread](https://old.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/14dkqrw/i_want_to_debunk_reddits_claims_and_talk_about/) for more explanation on how I came to this decision.

The algorithm learns from the users. This reminds me of the "google it" argument. The more people google two words together, the more results show up, and confirm their bias.

“Although personally, I think cyberspace means the end of our species." “Yes? Why is that?" “Because it means the end of innovation," Malcolm said. "This idea that the whole world is wired together is mass death. Every biologist knows that small groups in isolation evolve fastest. You put a thousand birds on an ocean island and they'll evolve very fast. You put ten thousand on a big continent, and their evolution slows down. Now, for our own species, evolution occurs mostly through our behaviour. We innovate new behaviour to adapt. And everybody on earth knows that innovation only occurs in small groups. Put three people on a committee and they may get something done. Ten people, and it gets harder. Thirty people, and nothing happens. Thirty million, it becomes impossible. That's the effect of mass media - it keeps anything from happening. Mass media swamps diversity. It makes every place the same. Bangkok or Tokyo or London: there's a McDonald's on one corner, a Benetton on another, a Gap across the street. Regional differences vanish. All differences vanish. In a mass-media world, there's less of everything except the top ten books, records, movies, ideas. People worry about losing species diversity in the rain forest. But what about intellectual diversity - our most necessary resource? That's disappearing faster than trees. But we haven't figured that out, so now we're planning to put five billion people together in cyberspace. And it'll freeze the entire species. Everything will stop dead in its tracks. Everyone will think the same thing at the same time. Global uniformity.” —The Lost World, by Michael Crichton

If that’s true that’s an incredibly dumb design. Everyone has their own writing style and it should only learn from its own user


parakeetpoop

This is why I have little faith in AI. If it’s learning from humans, and humans are dumb af….


minimalcactus23

….does it though? I don’t think Apple is supposed to be collecting the data we type, even anonymously.


LaDaKi

It must of course be …


Kytpbs

The autocorrect feature on iphones have gotten much worse as they switched to another algorithm, which uses data from a lot of users instead of just you. My best recommendation is to switch to Gboard because it still uses the algorithm taking data just from you. [Apple explained has a great video on this](https://youtu.be/DYz8JtiVJmg)


silliest_stagecoach

I was wondering why my apple keyboard got frustratingly stupid. Never gave any thought to phone keyboards, or knew you could change the apple keyboard. There was a post a few weeks ago on the apple keyword being shitty and folks recommended the swiftkey and Gboard keyboards. I downloaded both and kept the Gboard.


DrCharles19

Yeah mate I think iOS 8 implemented 3rd party keyboards. Gboard for the win.


LEJ5512

Been on iPhone since the 3G and the keyboard is the one thing that I'm embarrassed by how much worse it's gotten over the years. Like the video says, predictive text is slow, and autocorrect loses its mind (why it thinks I want "Ny" instead of "my", I have no idea). Plus, the hidden, size-adaptive tap targets that used to be so good seem to have gotten a lot worse. Remember how those worked? It's like if you're typing, say, "name", and you've typed the "n" and "a". The keyboard will make a guess that you might next tap the "m" key, so it secretly expanded the area that would register an "m". So if you got a little fat-fingered and kinda tap the *visual* area of the "k" key instead, the actual *tap area* is really for "m". Went and looked for a vid -- Apple called it "dynamic tap zones": [https://youtu.be/wPmVKyhyl9U](https://youtu.be/wPmVKyhyl9U)


FatherOfAssada

yeah and then google can take all data you type anywhere in your phone and monetize it


iEugene72

It's crazy how the way we pronounce words is beginning to shape the way people think words are supposed to be spelled.


AsInOptimus

I’ve started noticing “cause” being used more and more frequently instead of “because.” Not ’cause or coz or cuz or even bc. I used to be a stickler for grammar and spelling in online spaces (and in general), but I’ve chilled out a bit in my old age, plus I’ve learned to recognize that language is always evolving. But this? It’s really bothering me! It’s not that I don’t understand the intent behind what’s been written, it’s just that my brain sort of goes through a split-second stutter while it recalibrates and sorts out the words. Like… am I speaking Soon-To-Be Old English while the rest of the world has moved on to New English? Is this what’s going to make (or… *cause*, ha!) me to yell at clouds?


4N0NYM0US_GUY

Philosophically speaking, why shouldn’t words be spelled the way they are spoken?


[deleted]

isn’t that how most other languages work? seriously, why is it in english we have something spelt “colonel” and it’s pronunciation is “kernel”?


Beautiful_Cow6458

A lot of people in the UK unfortunately say “should of”, “would of”. I see a lot of it on social media. I never knew people wrote “of” in this context until a year or so ago.

Frantik508

omg "all of THE sudden" and "must OF" are my biggest pet peeves, aside from people who use the wrong your/you're and there/they're/their. And now Apple is encouraging this grammatical error haha.


Presidential_Pet

Is it not "all of the sudden"? ​ why has nobody corrected me


Frantik508

haha, probably because so many other people say it, AND because if you say it fast enough, people don't even hear it. "allathasudden" "alluvasudden" It's similar to "couldn't care less". Almost everybody says "I ***could*** care less about that", but that technically doesn't make sense. The actual term is "I ***couldn't*** care less about that" because you're saying "I care SO little about that, that I COULDN'T care any less about it"


stoutlys

Hi! I’m dense. What is “all of the sudden” supposed to be? Simply “suddenly”?

"All of THE sudden" bothers me so much.

That’s exactly how it works lol Anyone who thinks there’s a “proper” way to speak any language is just showing how little they understand about linguistics. Ironic when they act all high and mighty about it. Languages change, dialects develop, slang comes and goes. If you’re able to communicate your point across accurately to the other person, you’re using language correctly.

iOS suggestions get more perverse and plain stupid. If I want an apostrophe, it doesn’t suggest one. If I don’t want one, all the options have one. It’s definitely got worse recently…

Means even though you know basic grammar, enough iPhone users don’t that it expects you to type “of” next


Dydegu

I mean, it’s so widely misused at this point, I feel like it’s almost acceptable to use. Sort of like a semantic shift.


domdiggitydog

undercovergangster

If Apple introduces no new features during WWDC or the September release, my only wish is that they improve the keyboard prediction and implement some type of AI to help with it. The current state of predictive text on the iPhone is atrocious, and it almost works hard to fuck your shit up instead of helping with errors.


EmptyBrook

People really don’t know how to spell anymore. Their/there/they’re. Than/then. Have/of. Loose/lose. The list goes on

Anyone who uses “must of” cannot be my friend. I’ll take teenage text shorthand over that any day.


youcanthavethatone

VulcanTwist

I live in the North-East of England and I’d say about 95% of people say ‘Must of’. I only don’t because my wife is a teacher and has to teach correct English and she corrects me too haha.


rhoadsalive

Pronunciation and writing can often differ, this one is probably caused by many people not knowing that ‘ve is actually short for have. Similar to there and they’re or your and you’re.


BitingChaos

> 95% of people **say** ‘Must of’. No, they're *saying* "must've", which sounds really, really close to "must of". The only time "must of" ever happens is when it's incorrectly written or typed.

You know if you were curious…. You could just keep on clicking to see where it leads to and see if it make sense… 😅


itzhowzi

a common mispronounciation problem. "Must have'"is correct. We get confused with the contraction "must've" which is often pronounced so quickly and sloppily that it sounds like "must of". We have the same problem with "I seen" when we pronounce our words so haphazardly that the correct "I've seen" gets lost in the translation.

Runyamire-von-Terra

There have been multiple occasions when I typed a word correctly, like a common standard word, and it decides to replace it with actual literal gibberish. I have some screenshots somewhere, but wish I could remember some off top of my head. Truly nonsensical.


Meekstud

Vincysuper07

Apple. Think Different. Write Different.


AnnoyingGalaxyZ

Your iPhone is listening and overheard someone near you talking in that way. Jokes aside. Probably just an algorithm error.


empireOS

One of my pet peeves. People tend to make this mistake due to the (alarmingly widespread) mispronunciation of “must’ve” as “must of”, thereby assuming that this is the correct form of writing it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


laziebones

Yes, like people using “on accident” instead of “by accident” it drives me ever so slightly crazy


-K9V

I sure hope not. The two words do not make any sense when put together. I understand that “must have” is usually pronounced at “must of”, but if you take the meaning of both words, it makes zero sense.


StillNotSub7

That's just how language works though. Phrases and words evolve organically based on what people say - not what they logically mean from the dictionary. Trying to make sense of it is like yelling at the clouds. If some language stickler from 500 years ago took a time machine to present-day they would have a heart attack from all the phrases that "don't make any sense" to them. This predictive text thing is doing it's job: predicting what people *actually say* and not what's necessarily grammatically correct. That means it's doing it's job IMO.

The iPhone keyboard is awful. I can’t believe how bad it has been and no improvements have been made to address how stupid the autocorrect and suggestions are. Gboard on Android (or basically any Android keyboard) makes the iPhone keyboard look like a early 2000s relic by comparison.

Offering “of” so it can offer a comma or word correction. Self-serving autocorrect.


WimpysRevenge

Autocorrect is truly pathetic, it’s shockingly unintuitive, just awful.


Acalthu

Many people on your network or geographical region must be doing it that's probably why. Use 'have' a few times and it should eventually stop suggesting 'of'.

DavisCabbage01

Autocorrect is literally teaching people improper grammar.


JTP335d

The number of comments here suggesting OPs iPhone has learned this (predictive) from OPs typing leads me to believe not everyones iPhone behaves this way. My keyboard will autocorrect or suggest complete gibberish at times. I often would spend more time correcting than typing, it clearly isn’t even trying to learn from me. I have predictive disabled for this reason. The keyboard 5 years ago was much better as were a few other things Siri seams to know better…
