Is it possible for longterm use of a digital keyboard with predictive text input to degrade its quality?
I've noticed that after some time, my current keyboard of choice, SwiftKey, has a very annoying tendency to turn perfectly normal and grammatical correct words into something entirely different.
Right now, I wrote "on" somewhere and autocorrect turned it into "of" without any obvious reason.
Is this somehow a consequence of my high perplexity writing style where I constantly inject unusual words into the vocabulary? I am under the impression that such apps use Markov chains, or very small neural nets, is something funky going on in there, where consistently surprising the model makes it overcorrect?
