OK Gino, let's try to nudge this in another but related direction. Just did some large indoor banners for a sports facility. The buyer was having a fund raising poker game (don't ask) and someone noticed two spelling errors. After five proofs among half dozen people (embarrassingly including yours truly) , no one had caught them. When I asked my Millennial designer if AI had spell check, she replied, 'yes, but it's not automatic'. Through clenched teeth 'how about we do a spell check on every job before proofing?' At least Tex's kid actually is learning to spell.

Alright, but I don't see the connection ?? One is laziness and incompetence of many levels. Bad spelling at your age has nothing to do with their word usage. The other is a word, which is almost never used, except very recent. Why on earth do you need to put that word into a second graders mind now, when I bet it hasn't been used in decades or if ever ?? It's a low blow and using children to get a point across. Some really dumb stunt buy our educational system, once again.

Then let me spell it out for you. I don't disagree on your political view, but as it relates to our business, I'm glad that a second grader is actually getting some challenging words to spell. Seems like every other college graduate I interview doesn't even know basic spelling and has become so reliant on technology they can't think for themselves.

Back to "educational purposes"

Tell your Millennial designer that AI does have auto spell check - now. I was just looking at "whats new" in Illustrator, and it now has auto spell check.
