I’ve been playing with both the Thumb and the Unexpected keyboards. I like 'em both but, man, I have to admit I’d like them more if they had that top bar that predicts what you might be. Is that just a no-go from a privacy perspective? Can that functionality be local?

(I also wouldn’t mind a good voice typing feature)

I think you hugely estimate what it takes to complete and correct a few words. Maybe you would want some sort of accelerator for fine tuning but 1. You probably don’t even need fine tuning and 2. You can probably just run it on the CPU while your device is charging. But for inference modern CPUs are by far powerful enough.

Yeah, modern arm CPUs can run at 3GHz and play PS4 level games, but I don’t want my phone to become a handwarmer every time I want to typefvvn a quick email…

And of course, I’m not talking about correcting “fuck” to “duck”, I’m talking about ChatGPT level prediction. Or llama2, or gemini nano, or whatever…
