This is such a funny lie, they aren't even the same number of syllables
she clearly has no idea how AI works
Nor phonetics
This is the fun side of Apple. Since they're a monoculture, they can't just blame a partner or vendor like every other tech company. Watching them squirm is delightful. So arrogant and closed-source.
They should just flex and own this one

Apple will comply and instead transcribe "winner" to "Trump" in order to curry favor with him. Just like they kowtow on the Gulf of Shame.
Not sure if this is relevant but would be interesting to see what words have high cosine similarity with "Trump" in different pre-trained LLMs
I'm not even mad... except for the NYT links without a paywall bypass link
