It's like the old Microsoft paper clip, on steroids. "Hi, I think you're doing X. Would you like me to reformat it for you that way? Too bad, I already did it and good luck undoing it" … except autocorrupt doesn't even tell you, it just does it (and you have to catch it, despite our brains being likely to misread any cobmination of the same lettres as the exectped word, if they strat and end with the same letter).
