I don't think I like the new autocorrect
I keep finding comments I made that have weird typos in them that I know came from autocorrect. I typed "disruptively" or something very close to that, and it turned into "disruptive let". But thats far from the only instance. If I did fat finger the y and hit t, I'd rather "disruptivelt" than "disruptive let", the first seems much more obvious that its a typo, the second could be quite confusing depending on the context since its now 2 english words.

Yeah, the new one is using some sort of adaptive machine learning. I'm sure it'd learn well if I typed slower and realized instantly when it made a bad edit, but I dont, and I'm pretty sure coming back to do the edit doesn't teach it properly (if I even notice later to make the correction)
I experienced this early on, but it seems to have mostly resolved itself in the last few weeks. I’m not positive what the difference is, but I wasn’t far from just turning it off all together and then things just got better out of the blue.
What are you on 17.0.1, 17.0.2, 17.1, etc?
17.1.1
It’d probably learn better if I noticed while I was typing, but I usually only see it later.
It’s been awful for me too (17.1)
