Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Whenever I type the letters sc on the Safari Search Bar, these letters disappear. So I can't write words like "science," "school," or "Scott." It is very disturbing and annoying. I have to use Chrome or go to google.com to avoid this. Is the problem my computer or is it Safari? Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.6

You can fix this by deactivating under the search Safari settings the "preload top hit in the background".
It is a bug of the search bar on Safari for sure but here is a useful workaround.

Hello CalliGirl,
We're glad you thought to ask Apple Support Communities about the issue you're having with typing the letters "sc" into the Safari search bar. If you haven't already, restart your Mac as restarting can resolve many odd issues: Shut down or restart your Mac
If the behavior continues, clear Safari history to see if old data is causing this to happen: Clear your browsing history in Safari on Mac
Let us know how it goes.
Take care.
This is happening to me too as of Feb 20. I've restarted Safari, restarted my Mac, but the problem persists. It does not happen when I type sc in any other application, including Word, Chrome, or Mail. If I hit the space bar a couple of times in the Safari search bar, then "sc" works. An awkward workaround, to be sure. Would like a permanent fix.
