Auto-Assume aka Auto-Ass-U-Me

A name for the software or hardware feature built into any program, device, unit, item etc. that monitors the chars. a user is inputting and while doing so, keeps looking to make an assumption about what the word the user is thinking. once some scoring system rises over some predetermined threshold an assumption is then made and the char string being typed is changed to some word or phrase. The "Assume" or "Ass-U-Me" part of this name is a play on the fact that much of the time the word such a feature assumes is NOT correct and if not noticed and fixed causes embarrassment to the sending party and sometimes to the receiving party as well. This play on the name comes from the long time used: When you assume something... you make an Ass out of You and Me.
