Actually, I think it is the "genAI" as part of writing tools and Siri update. I think I misremembered for my description and it was being applied to form fields for different configuration panels.

I just tested it with text inputs on a form. It triggers with peoples's names from your contacts. It also triggers with capitalisation like typing something like "fedex". If you type really quickly you're fine, and if you type slow you have time to play with the settings. Speeds the middle with these "Spelling and prediction" settings end up with text changing. Enter and space seem to always trigger. A delay thinking of the next word seems to sometimes trigger. Seems new to me and the contacts suggestions seem aligned with the integrated Siri they're advertising (and sure technically you could probably say it isn't genAI)

Anyway, I'm turning the settings back off now

Yeah, I wouldn't surprised to be wrong with how frustrated I was with words in config files changing + commands in the terminal having words updated just as I hit enter to run them. I updated yesterday, haven't had this issue before, and it stopped happening when I turned off those settings. I'd turned similarly named settings off on the iPhone years ago but never noticed them on the mac. With the names of the settings and the very similar fail mode to when genAI is added to IDE (things like updates being accepted when you hit the right arrow), I did assume a bit.

It still seems odd for me. I can't remember the mac ever taking what I wrote and changing it without some input from me.

Either way, my issue seems to have stopped so I'm pretty happy turning the settings off.

Also, I just worked out why text kept changing and breaking things. During the update they created, and set on by default, these two settings:

• Correct spelling automatically
• Capitalise words automatically

Fuck Apple and all these companies that keep jamming genAI down their user's throats to make their launch metrics higher. And fuck all the software engineers that go along with it

I came here while searching for how make notifications linger for less time at the top of the screen. I think this time increased with iOS 26 but I could just be less patient because of the recent change.

Anyone know a good place to ask? I know I Stack Overflow and Reddit work, but I'm trying to use less US tech services. It seems like Lemmy should be a decent match, but I couldn't find a good channel. I figure people that are interested in things like this post might also know a good channel / alternative

For anyone that really hates it, try different combinations of these settings:

• Accessibility -> Display -> Reduce Transparency
• Accessibility -> Display -> Increase contrast

The combinations look okay on the iPhone, not so much on a mac

Your first link is broken.

Your second link doesn't immediately have that data but there is a dynamic form to get some data. I don't see public suicides in it. Since it's a dynamic form, a genAI system won't see the data either but will see people reference the site when making arguments. I'm assuming the genAI is just doing that.

Your last two links are the same report for different years. One says this and it contradicts your numbers:

Among all suicide decedents, the most common location of suicide was a house or apartment (71.3%), followed by a motor vehicle (5.5%), a natural area (4.4%), a street or highway (2.8%), and a hotel or motel (2.3%).

Also, I'm not convinced that these would be even across all modes of suicide so I'm not convinced by the simple math. (ie. Maybe people use guns to kill themselves outside a lot more than at home, or the opposite. I don't see a great reason to assume they'd be similar rates.)

Oh, I simply don't trust genAI. I sometimes finish a project, then see what genAI has to say. It's usually pretty misleading. They sometimes give sources though. Any links to those?

That ruling is worth taking a look at:

https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69784731/261/american-association-of-university-professors-v-rubio/

From page 148 the ruling begins a section titled "Justice in the Trump Era" and beginning page 155, also in that section, begins to list the ways he uses retribution including targeting free speech.

Other quotes are:

• "this Court finds as fact and concludes as matter of law that Secretaries Noem and Rubio and their several agents and subordinates acted in concert to misuse the sweeping powers of their respective offices to target noncitizen pro-Palestinians for deportation primarily on account of their First Amendment protected political speech"

• "I fear President Trump believes the American people are so divided that today they will not stand up, fight for, and defend our most precious constitutional values so long as they are lulled into thinking their own personal interests are not affected. Is he correct?"

Usually with a comment like that I wouldn't reply like this but you're very, very active in this thread.

Any statistics on public suicided by hanging? Ideally per capita grouped by race.

I had a look myself so I know this is a tall order but I thought it was worth seeing if someone has the info

It doesn't seem to violate guidelines and was a view on the future. Imagine there was some hard reason AGI wasn't possible with silicon. I really can't think of a mechanism but that's still futurism even if it doesn't align with your view of it. It's basically Dune (sure it's fiction and the prequels kind of hinge on AI but the main novels don't and are considered scifi which seems like a reasonable yardstick).

That said, their follow up is pretty aggressive. I can see that killing community. So would their pessimism I guess but I kind of hope this channel isn't only for soft sci-fi discussions as if they're realistic.

The account is two days old!??

I wish there were block lists here like in Bluesky. I name them as groups of why I'm blocking them like "needlessly aggressive".

Didn't they start doing this really early one? At least moving them around state lines and not telling lawyers or family so it was hard for them to file suit?
