Who said anything about spellcheck?

  GP said they weren't okay with someone using an AI to check for grammatical errors. If they would be okay with using software to check for spelling errors, I'd be interested to know why they're making that distinction. And I'd like to know what they think of autocorrect, which at least on the iPhone uses an on-device LLM nowadays.

    "AI" can mean anything with machine learning. Spellchecker can use some sort of machine learning too. But what people mean when they say "AI" is LLM chatbot. But a spellchecker highlights mistakes, it doesn't suggest to rewrite the text arbitrarily like an LLM chatbot. So I totally understand how you can be for one and not other By the way autocorrect on the iphone got worse recently, bunch of times it "corrected" the word to a wrong one for me

      Wow, you’re arguing. What about predictive T9?
