The LLM grammar fixer I use acts silly in that doesn't seem to know about threat models. It may correct "threat model" to "threaten the model" or "threaten to model", neither of which I would ever do but it's fun trying to imagine.

@lmk Heh, maybe you already dealt with it, but does it not even have a way to add your own phrases (like a spell checker dictionary)? Maybe just change the system prompt of the LLM. ("Also legitimate phrases include 'threat model'", etc.)

@headmold Thanks but I don't think so: it's Gmail compose (moving to an LLM would be too much copy/paste). I assume that's a local model (small and in JS?) it's so fast so it doesn't have big vocabulary, but just guessing - and pretty sure no way to know (other than if it's local which would require real work I bet).

@lmk Yeah I should've remembered you've dorked with LLMs enough to do those things if you could.

I've mostly just stopped paying attention to the grammar checkers because they don't like my idioms or purposeful stretches of grammar. Today I shut one up because it didn't like fixing something "in post".

@headmold Come to think of it, with the internet increasingly dominated by huge corporations wielding centralized mega-services (search, social, ...) they probably prefer one-size-fits-all (a lot less work) so it could take a long time before power is yielded to the individual.
