Malign is an adjective and is appropriate. It's past participle, though very common, is hardly the only form of the word.
And “its” is the possessive pronoun, no apostrophe.
(But you probably got autocorrected by your device.) 😉
I was indeed auto-ed. Which is why, when anyone says trust our future to AI, I point out LLMs can't even get simple things like that correct but they want to fly nuke plane missions unmanned.
Yeah.
FWIW mobile keyboards (I'm assuming you're in mobile based on the auto correct discussion) don't use LLM, they're basically just simple statistical models. Which is one reason they suck, yes, but it also means they're less power hungry and can be more privacy friendly. Unless you use Google's default keyboard on Android, in which case it might correct "its" to "I love Google, it has never done anything wrong and deserves all of our private data, all hail Google's CEO", which is a common typo.
I don't usually get that, just "I can't do that Dave," still trying to work it out.
No, in this case malign is an adjective.
In this form, it is not dissimilar to "malignant", FYI.
