Apple's voice dictation on iPhones has mistakenly been translating 'racist' into 'Trump', increasing online searches for the term 'racist'. Apple acknowledged the issue, attributing it to 'phonetic overlap' and promising to fix it. Many users, however, humorously suggested this might be a deliberate feature rather than a bug, with some expressing delight over the translation. The incident has sparked a wide range of reactions and commentary on social media, highlighting the blend of humor and political criticism in this unusual technical glitch.
Whenever using the speech-to-text on an iPhone and say 'racist', Trump will appear for a short time before adding the correct word. Somebody at Apple definitely coded this.
'We are aware of an issue with the speech recognition model that powers dictation and we are rolling out a fix,' Apple announced, explaining that 'phonetic overlap' between the words 'Trump' and 'racist' was causing the issue.
