Apple has gotten terrible. If i don’t proofread it will change words to what it thinks they should be without prompting me. Also, editing sentences on iOS sucks. They changed that too. That way after they fuck up my sentence it’s also way harder to go back and fix it.

But at least they have blue bubbles!

I know right. I’ve been really thinking about going Samsung for my next phone. Honestly, I hate this iPhone so much.

Do you use an apple computer?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No, I’ll be honest, I’m not a huge fan of ummmm Macs? Are all Apple computers Macs? I genuinely don’t know. I have used them, and they’re ok. But, for the same amount of money I can make a better PC. Since I’m a poor lad I was able to buy my pc one piece at a time.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, Macs are apple computers. I probably should've phrased it that way. Anyway, given that you're not deep in the Apple ecosystem, it will be easier to switch to android.

Nah, you’re good. I wasn’t trying to correct you. I for real wasn’t sure lol. But, yeah that’s how they get ya. I have a watch that would be a few hundred dollar piece of junk, but I only use it to find my phone.

I've found SwiftKey predictions have gotten super terrible recently. They used to be very good. I blame AI.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Same here. It actually has been introducing weird typos for me. It's fucking awful.

I've got happy new ^month all week. FFS

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

That's disappointing to hear. It's the only keyboard that manages fine when I hit another key instead space four words in a row.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

I've found exactly the same thing, actually. Although it seems to be getting better again.

OnlyOffice works better for me.

Edit: *ONLYOFFICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!!!! I don't know why the name is full caps.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

:'( why r u screaming at me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Does ONLYOFFICE still have ties with Russia?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

No, they restructured the organization in August of last year, due to EU sanctions on Russia. They're now 100% owned by a British company that is 100% owned by a Singaporean one. Before that, they were based out of Latvia with development in Russia (which really doesn't matter much since it's open source)

Is no office in Latvia, is only rock.

I've seen this with gpt4. If I ask it to proofread text with errors it consistently does a great job, but if I prompt it to proofread a text without errors, it hallucinates them. It's funny to see Microsoft having the same issue.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago

I'm pretty sure MS uses GPT-4 as the foundation of all their AI stuff, so it's not surprising to see them have the same issues. Funny, as you said, but not surprising.

Sometimes teams will just start writing its hallucinations mid fucking sentence. So if I hit send without looking it’ll looklook somethinabout like this.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Yep I understand they're there to make our lives easier but I wish they were implemented in a more controllable way because the AI hallucinations just makes me sound insane

It may be high time for a redux of It's A Good Life replacing little Anthony Fremont with an LLM powered generative AI system.
