Id like to think that me pointing out this entire scenario was caused by the UK & US due to their support of Israel made it obvious where I stand on this debate. But apparently not.
As for the pedantry; the language used was not a personal opinion; but rather utilising their own language to draw the subsequent metaphor.
I don't take bro to exclusively mean male. But rather a male dominated group.
In the UK we use lads a lot; I'd say it's probably the British equivalent (tho bro does get used here too). IE: "I'm going to the pub with the lads." But that doesn't mean it's exclusively men, there's sometimes a woman or two in the group, it's just that it's a male dominated group. It's the same with women who have a female dominated group with a male member in (going to see my ladies/girlies etc...).
All of the above still assumes a male dominated use of AI though; and According to statista that does seem to be the case. Though as time goes on, the gap will likely close.
This is the big one. Steam are currently seen as the exception to the rule largely due to Gabe's commitment to the gaming community. It's one of the few large American companies that actually seem to practice what they preach. This is probably largely due to steam being privately owned rather than publicly traded, so Gabe can afford to do stuff that benefits his customers, rather than milk them for the shareholders benefit.
Once good ol' Gabe is gone though, steam will likely eventually be sold publicly and the gradual enshittification brought about by the American shareholder will be inevitable, so whilst steams not an immediate threat like other American platforms, you're certainly not wrong to bring them up as a potential threat.
Personally I avoid using autocorrect for the same reason I avoid using a calculator for mundane calculations. I ascribe to the belief that your brain works in the same way a muscle does; that is, if you don't use it... you lose it.
In many instances, autocorrect can be a god send (someone with dyslexia no doubt finds it invaluable for example), but for the layperson, my opinion is that it's just another tool that promotes laziness, and a lack of thought around grammar/spelling etc.
I'm not suggesting my way is the correct approach, but rather offering an alternative viewpoint as to why some people disable assistance tools such as autocorrect.
The irony being that Houthi were attacking predominantly US & UK ships due to their ongoing support of Israel. The US created this problem, and then moan when they have to clean it up. At this point, the US is the world stage equivalent of a petulant child spilling milk on their shirt and then throwing a tantrum.
