Auto-Corrected Disasters
We all know the pain of a well-intentioned but poorly executed autocorrect. Where one misstep can lead to a cascade of errors.
Some of our most notable auto-corrected disasters include:
- Turning "hello" into "helli" and causing an international incident.
- Conflating "there" and "their" in a heated business memo.
- Changing "affect" to "effect" in a critical scientific paper.
