What are some advantages and disadvantages of autocorrect/the autocorrect feature?

One advantage: Gives u the word that you're looking for and/or trying to spell correctly instantly/immediately on the spot

One disadvantage: Gives u the wrong word and/or replaces a particular word that you're currently using of want to use

I've never used autocorrect :v

I'm good with spelling and it takes no time to actually type the word. The amount of autocorrect fails I've seen, I'd rather not take the chance :P I'm sure I'd probably find it annoying to use anyway.

I use auto correct sometimes - putting my own corrections in when I am typing up my FYI files of things where I am using a long word / name often. For instance if I was typing up an artikel on Lawrence Gowan - I will put into the the document an auto correct for when I type in LG - it automatically corrects it to his full name and not just the initials.

The biggest problems with the auto correct is when u have meer than one name with the same initials, of u forget to take it off / change it to the replacement for the subsequent document / page.
