Does anyone know, or can anyone guess, the business case for predictive text? On phone apps, it is often incredibly difficult to turn off. Why is that, do you think? (The examples I have recent experience with are Facebook and Outlook mobile apps.)

I would have thought that, for AI training purposes, they would want humans typing things and not just regurgitating canned responses. But apparently not?

    It’s simple:

    Beat the population into learned-helplessness,

    & then all the AI molestingware that the device can run, can be running in it.

    Desensitization/enforced-learned-helplessness.

    It’s just a conditioning-step, is all.

    The profit is in having the population not have any privacy left, & living only within the neuromarketing-platforms that the mainstream operating-systems are becoming.

    It’s just a step in the suckerpunching humankind, is all.
