LLMs are at a great disadvantage here because they operate on tokens, not letters.

I remember reading somewhere that LLMs are actually fantastic at reading heavily mistyped sentences! Mistyped to a level where humans actually struggle.

Tihs probably refers to comon mispelllings an typo's.
It's actually not. You can scramble every letter within words and it can mostly unscramble it. Keep the first letter and it recovers almost 100%.
