Thread: Auto Context?
View Single Post
Interesting. I think this would be something best baked into the program. That way, the context could auto-fill in the quick entry window and you could correct it right away. I can imagine using machine learning, a form of AI, to train OF on what context a particular user typically uses for certain action text. The AI could even scan all the actions in your current database to get a jump start on learning your preferences.

From a usability standpoint, it seems like the prediction accuracy would have to be extremely high for this not to be annoying. Having the wrong context added while I'm just trying to throw an action into OF would interrupt my flow. Part of the beauty of OF is how quickly I can throw a new action into it without losing track of what I was working on. I'd hate to lose that. Another risk would be that an action was misfiled and that kept you from completing something important.
