Apple says it is repairing a glitch with its speech-to-text feature on iPhones which interprets the word "racist" as "Trump" before autocorrecting itself.
"We are aware of an issue with the speech recognition model that powers dictation and we are rolling out a fix today," a spokesperson for Apple said in a statement on Tuesday.
Apple explained the speech recognition models powering the feature may first display words with some phonetic overlap.
FNN can report that it is not just Trump who is subject to phonetic overlap.
- The word 'Starmer' is interpreted as 'barmy'
- The word 'Trudeau' is interpreted as 'turd'
- The words 'von der Leyen' is interpreted as 'von der Lyin'
- The word 'Kamala' is interpreted as 'unburdened'
- The word 'Biden' is interpreted as 'bidet'
Some Apple coder has been having fun.
