Apple working on fix after voice text turns ‘racist’ to ‘Trump’

Apple is working to address a problem raised by users on social media, in which saying the word “racist” while using the iPhone’s voice-to-text tool briefly shows “Trump.”

Users online shared footage of themselves using the voice-to-text feature to write out words. Several staff members at the Washington Examiner were also able to replicate the problem using the tool on their own iPhones.
