Someone at Apple has been a very naughty boy, and needs to be rewarded for this.
You see, it appears that someone did something that briefly replaced the term "Racist" with "Trump" in the iPhone speech to text program.
In all fairness, this could have been something that a group of users did, akin to the Google Bombing of days past, but if I had to bet on this, I would bet on it being an inside job, and not some form of AI data poisoning by users.
A former member of Apple's Siri Team agrees with my assessment, saying, "This smells like a serious prank. The only question is: Did someone slip this into the data or slip into the code?"
So, when this hero gets caught, and caught he will be, we need to get enough money together that he never has to work another day in his life.
While using Apple’s automatic dictation feature to send messages on Tuesday, some iPhone users reported seeing a peculiar bug: the word “racist” temporarily appearing as “Trump,” before quickly correcting itself.
The message blip, which was replicated several times by The New York Times, provoked controversy after appearing in a viral TikTok post, raising questions about Apple’s artificial intelligence capabilities.
An Apple spokeswoman blamed the issue on phonetic overlap between the two words, and said the company was working on a fix.
"Phonetic overlap," my flabby hairy white ass.
The two words are not at all alike in their sounds, though they are nearly identical in their meaning.
