People Are Using Autocomplete To Apologize, And The Results Are Kinda Freaky (27 Tweets)

This is what happens when you let your keyboard autocomplete apologies.

I think we can all admit that technology has essentially taken over our lives, and our phones rule most of our day to day activities.

And it's not just in the younger generation, it's all of us, whether you admit it or not.

However, for all the amazing things technology has brought to us, one thing it can't do for sure is express real human emotions. No matter how much it may try.

While autocorrect's beloved cousin, autocomplete, does try expressing our feelings, it has failed terribly.

I'm sure most of us can count the number of times autocorrect and autocomplete have f*cked us in text conversations.

If it works out well—which it rarely does—you can get to your virtual or online destination even faster. But if it doesn't, it makes you wonder about the sanity of the brain that goes on inside your phone.

In today's hectic world, phones can be your friend, confidant, and silent ally.

Part of the magic of your smartphone is that it'll want to help you so it predicts what you might want to say before you've even asked for it.

This is often based on what you regularly type on the phone or what you previously wrote on your phone keyboard.

Autocomplete, or word completion, is a feature in which your phone predicts the rest of the words as you type. In smartphones, this is known as the predictive text.

In graphical user interfaces, you can press the tab key to accept a suggestion or the down arrow key to accept one of several.

Autocomplete speeds up human-computer interactions when it correctly predicts the words you intended to enter.
