For privacy reasons, you wouldn't want the data, that is, your text messages, to be sent to a central server to be used for training the next word predictor. But it's still nice to have an accurate next word prediction algorithm. What to do? This is where federated learning comes in, which is a machine learning technique developed to tackle such privacy concerns.
