It's about using a cloud-based model to better predict the next keystroke.

Think of the next-word-prediction of the likes of GBoard or SwiftKey, but for just strokes/characters. There's a local model, but it's limited in depth and complexity, and then a cloud based one, that can do more but as shown here has security flaws.

Well, it can't just be about that. There are ways to salt the data so that it's not predictable. I'm not an expert in that area, but I know it's a technique that's often employed by cryptography experts when this is a major concern.
