iPhone's perceptive dictation translation


        Son David texted me today that he "braved the outside [of his apartment] to get a fancy donut down the block" (referencing the "stay home" orders we are under to contain the virus).

        I texted back:  "Sounds good.  I know when I had the craving for brownies, I just couldn't resist."

        While I was voicing my message to iPhone, I noticed it typed "grieving," but later in the sentence and before the period, it changed its mind and realized I had said "craving."

        Now that's perceptive and resilient of it, I opined to David.

        He texted me back:  "It wises up mid-dictate."

        Yeah.  How'd it do that!
