      Apple says it is working to fix its speech-to-text tool after some social media users found that when they spoke the word "racist" into their iPhones it typed it out as "Trump."

      The tech giant has suggested the issue with its Dictation service has been caused by a problem it has distinguishing between words with an "r" in them.

      "We are aware of an issue with the speech recognition model that powers Dictation and we are rolling out a fix today," an Apple spokesperson said.

      However an expert in speech recognition told the BBC this explanation was "just not plausible."

      Peter Bell, professor of speech technology at the University of Edinburgh, said it was more likely that someone had altered the underlying software that the tool used.

      A former Apple employee who worked on its AI assistant Siri told the New York Times: "This smells like a serious prank."

            Did an intern sneak that in or did the model itself decide to do that?

                      I think autocorrect has some things mixed up. Not every rectangle is a square, but every square is a rectangle …

                        Why can‘t my autocorrect do a proper job like that but instead come up with the trumpest nonsense?

                              I couldn't actually believe this article was real. Figured it was a comedic post like that previous one about switching to Cyrillic letters in the US .

                                      Apple fixed it. It now autocorrects "rapist" to trump.

                                        Apple says it is working to fix its speech-to-text tool after some social media users found that when they spoke the word "racist" into their iPhones it typed it out as "Trump."

                                        The tech giant has suggested the issue with its Dictation service has been caused by a problem it has distinguishing between words with an "r" in them.

                                        "We are aware of an issue with the speech recognition model that powers Dictation and we are rolling out a fix today," an Apple spokesperson said.

                                        However an expert in speech recognition told the BBC this explanation was "just not plausible."

                                        Peter Bell, professor of speech technology at the University of Edinburgh, said it was more likely that someone had altered the underlying software that the tool used.

                                        A former Apple employee who worked on its AI assistant Siri told the New York Times: "This smells like a serious prank."
