Or they can predict, but don't because it's a swear word and it's a product decision.
Apple's historical secrecy does hurt them here. However, they have taken the stance to not slurp everything up and pack it off to the mothership like Google, which I understand has led to some interesting work on resource constrained models (since it has to run on your device) and data anonymization.
- Bud 10y agoAll you have to do is type "fucking" ONCE, then tap the word "fucking" in quotes, on the left-hand side of the suggestions/corrections bar, and the word is learned as an acceptable dictionary word. Permanently. Forever. And that persists when you change devices. Anyone feigning ignorance of this feature at this point just isn't trying very hard.
