I'm definitely not advertising haha, I'm questioning if this product 
even works. I found it on kickstarter which makes it super questionable 
in my opinion since I've seen so many projects from there fall on their 
face in the past.

hmm that is an interesting point, it probably does keep a history of 
past entries. This probably isn't something that warrants using ai then 
now that I think about it, I could certainly try and use a simple 
"frequently used" algorithm that maybe takes into account the context of 
the previous few words like suggestions on mobile phone keyboards do. I 
think I may try that out.

Maybe using standard chording software where you define what keys 
correlate to what words more of the move here since you won't end up 
typing words you didn't expect to like it seems like you may using a 
system like CharaChorder is.
