As would be expected, supporters of President Donald Trump were not satisfied with Apple about transcription, with conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones suggesting a conspiracy against Trump.
Trump supporters are not likely to accept Apple’s explanations.
Apple Said that the transcription problem was phonetic, a defect in the dictation function of the iPhone where the tool has problems with similar survey words with the letter “R.”

“We are aware of a problem with the voice recognition model that feeds the dictation and we are deploying a correction today,” an Apple spokesman said in a statement.
Bug or farce?
However, experts and initiates are not convinced of Apple’s explanation.
In BbcThe report, the teacher of speech technology, Peter Bell, said that Apple’s version of what happened was “simply not plausible”. THE New York Times spoke to a former Apple employee who had worked on the vocal assistant of the AI of the company Siri who said that he looked more like a “serious farce”.
Although the explanation of the farce seems plausible, it would not be the first time that Apple’s AI has become a thug. Recently, the company had to shoot Its summaries of information on the AI of the iPhone after the functionality fueled by Apple Intelligence provided users with titles completely generated by AI.
Mashable tried to recreate the problem of dictation, but it seems that Apple has already deployed its correction.
