Apple's autocorrect finally stops ducking around.

TL;DR Summary
Apple has announced that it will no longer automatically change the word "ducking" to a common swear word in its autocorrect feature. The new function will use AI to detect when users really mean to use the expletive. The change will be part of the iOS 17 operating system upgrades, which are expected to be available as a public beta in July, with the general release in September. Apple also unveiled an augmented reality headset, Apple Vision Pro, which will retail at $3,499 and be available early next year in the US and later in other countries.
