What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?

I’d love to work for Google for one day. I’d ask where I can fix autocorrect on everyone’s devices, and then I’d work on that until I was escorted out by security.

That’s literally the only reason I’d like to work there. I’ve typed in words that exist in the English dictionary, and Google did not know the word.

I found myself scouring the internet to make sure I wasn’t going crazy. Lo and behold, I wasn’t! Google is far behind, it seems, with language.

I understand that there are different keyboards for different languages (example, I know Russian, so I use separate keyboards when need be).

However, I also know Español and Nahuatl. And although Mexica came before the Spanish Inquisition, when I type in Xolotl (clearly Mexica but apart of the culture nonetheless) I should not have to modify, add, edit or change. Which means, unless it is directly linked to modern society, and hasn’t been pillaged, chances are Google, with all of its vast technological advances, cannot understand Mexica – calls it Aztec, and doesn’t recognize deities in its supposed vast dictionary.

I do understand that I can add it to my dictionary, but don’t boast if it’s not really that great!

There’s the common mistakes we all make while typing, but my favorite typo from Google happened after lockdown. I typed in interesting, and autocorrect separated the word into “go fishing”…just as an example.

To diction is like breathing to me, so when my keyboard slurs my speech, it beckons the question.

How vast is the knowledge of a company who has aerial cameras to show you my exact location…

Yet, they cannot spell or recognize history?
