I can't tell if this is real or satire.

pmedera.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Seems accurate. No need to fix it.

First thing Siri ever got right

jenntok.bsky.social•1 day ago

I don’t get it, what exactly is the bug?

discospider200.bsky.social•1 day ago

Why fix the truth 🤷‍♂️

i-zick.bsky.social•1 day ago

freeofparty.bsky.social•1 day ago

Let them take their time "fixing the issue" like... never?

fathispanicotaku.bsky.social•1 day ago

a “bug” eh? lol.

worm-ate-my-brain.bsky.social•1 day ago

It was a feature, not a bug. #Apple #Siri #Trump

donshipman.bsky.social•1 day ago

is that a bug tho?

turnbasedcarl.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Well they are synonyms.

merchesueroknight.bsky.social•1 day ago

Leave it!

streambert.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Are you sure that's a bug?

descryptic.bsky.social•1 day ago

I legit thought this was some article from The Onion or Beaverton News...

socialcurrency.bsky.social•1 day ago

Me too. I had to click the link because it seemed too funny to be true. Lol

maroonpickle.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Where's the bug tho?

elleiam101.bsky.social•14 hours ago

It calls it as it sees it!

dragoninadisco.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Fix?

savemelordtoo.bsky.social•1 day ago

Even AI can’t tell the difference.🤣

biffmcmac.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I guess I underestimated Apple Intelligence.

"bug"

I dont even like apples

amelianeek.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Sounds right to me.

gambit1.bsky.social•1 day ago

I hope the “fix” is that they capitalize the “R” in racist. He’s earned it.

davidfint.bsky.social•13 hours ago

"bug" 😂

marshadowck.bsky.social•1 day ago

It works great then

jcdenton205.bsky.social•23 hours ago

this "bug" doesn't need to be fixed

i think it's perfectly fine as it is😁

sverre-auestad.bsky.social•18 hours ago

This is good. They need to make sure this only happens when it's used as a noun. It makes no sense to use "Trump" as an adjective.
The easy fix is, of course, to reverse it so it writes "racist" when you say "Trump". Or maybe "fascist Oompa-Loompa"

nicky-pryde.bsky.social•22 hours ago

That's not a bug to me

jeroastra.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Its not a bug. Its a feature.

eazyent.com•11 hours ago

why?

ricardosegarra.bsky.social•13 hours ago

It ain’t a bug. It knows.

joviowens.bsky.social•19 hours ago

X users be like: that is a bug, fix it ASAP!!

socialcurrency.bsky.social•1 day ago

What a time to be alive. 🙄☠️

ukbibi.bsky.social•1 day ago

Keep trying Apple 🤣🤣🤣🤣. He is R A C I S T

sanjnagi.bsky.social•3 hours ago

They have to. When someone sees the word Trump, it could mean racist, Ra(p)ist, felon, liar, criminal, coward, bitch, moron, traitor, pedo..., Cheater, criminal, etc

barometricfunk.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Let me guess - they’ll have a bug fix available in the next 4-5 years, right?

escarietson.bsky.social•1 day ago

The bug ain't wrong though.

I think this Songs truly expresses on what real true Americans want to say to Trump!

Bug or feature?

syepstein.bsky.social•1 day ago

A “bug” lol…that is great

silvaxvii.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Bug?

spongebobsweiner.bsky.social•22 hours ago

This is either some apple messing around or a unintentional issue due to how much those words are together

anniebb66.bsky.social•1 day ago

I just said “Trump racist” and it wrote “Trump Trump” and then switched the second one to “racist” before my eyes

ale-ale.bsky.social•1 day ago

Might as well leave it!

roninelwoof.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Nono the iPhone is right, no need to fix something that's true

melodicquest.bsky.social•1 day ago

I don't understand. What's the problem?
