Is GNU Aspell the best spell checker for emacs on macOS?
Hunspell seems popular as well. I believe it's the one used by Firefox and LibreOffice, and I think it's the system spell checker in MacOS already? 🤷♂️

Why don't common browsers use Soundex for spelling suggestions?
Almost all browsers use the Hunspell library for spell checking. You should investigate what methods it uses for stemming and suggesting corrections. How does that algorithm work for non-English languages? The main variation you will see between browsers in spelling suggestions is the base dictionary that is used.

Does anyone know how to change the dictionary that W10 pulls from? Ideally replace with Google's brain?
I don't think so. Looking at the Chromium source it appears to use Hunspell. This is an okay spell checker, but not AI based AFAIK, only "Morphological analysis, stemming and generation".

Autocorrect anything with Google as a go-to spell check
Are you familiar with Hunspell? Dictionaries are comprehensive enough to be part of different Office Suites, so I don't see them as constricted to autocorrect.

Rebuilding the most popular spellchecker. Part 1
Note that there are also a few "pragmatic" ports of Hunspell into other languages (in order to use it in environments where C++ dependency is undesireable), namely WeCantSpell.Hunspell in C# and nspell in JS (very incomplete); and aforementioned nuspell can also be considered a "port" (from legacy C++ to a modern one).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing hunspell and WeCantSpell.Hunspell you can also consider the following projects:
SymSpell - SymSpell: 1 million times faster spelling correction & fuzzy search through Symmetric Delete spelling correction algorithm
JamSpell - Modern spell checking library - accurate, fast, multi-language
nuspell - 🖋️ Fast and safe spellchecking C++ library
spylls - Pure Python spell-checker, (almost) full port of Hunspell
spellsitter.nvim - Treesitter powered spellchecker
NetSpell - Spell Checker for .NET
cspell - A Spell Checker for Code!
vim-abolish - abolish.vim: Work with several variants of a word at once
vim-litecorrect - Lightweight auto-correction for Vim
abbrev-man.nvim - 🍍 A NeoVim plugin for managing vim abbreviations.
