Do not ask Siri today Donald Trump



[ad_1]

Politics is today a topic of thanksgiving conversation across the country. Whether you or someone at your meal decides to make his or her point of view known about the state of America in 2018, it's up to you to decide.

One thing you should not do: ask Siri about Donald Trump or the age of the president.

Apparently, The Verge noticed for the first time that the Rod asked the question "Who is Donald Trump" or "How old is Donald Trump?" Returns an image of the male genitals in place of the 45th President of the United States.

USA TODAY was able to reproduce the problem by asking Siri "who is Donald Trump" on an iPhone X Thursday night.

Apple currently seems to have disabled the display of images when these questions are asked. By asking the question now, the digital assistant returns a series of links to various websites and an image-free result of Wolfram Alpha when he asks questions about his age.

By asking the same questions to Google's assistant, you get true images of Trump. Siri sent back correct pages and pictures about former presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush.

Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment on how this problem had occurred or what it was doing to make sure it did not happen again.
