Stephen Colbert exposes Siri biases

haha, that was great. I think I'm going to have to start watching the Colbert Report.

I'm in the UK and can't watch the clip, but I wish I could. I really like The Daily show and this spin off is supposed to be very funny.

But let's be clear here; this is satire and the people being satirised are those making these ridiculous claims, not Apple. However, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the show didn't one day satirise the sort of 'three monkey' types that think Apple can do no wrong.

Was this in response to, or the cause of the totally ludicrous accusations by the ACLU that Siri and Apple are anti-abortion? If that WAS actually the case, I applaud them. Not a fan of Colbert anyway....

I love the fact you have a link to a wiki article on scousers.

... But you do understand the principles of comedy and sarcasm, don't you? I've found it actually quite funny, and I'm German :D

Uhhh... It's a joke. How did you not get that?

That just means your hubby may be from the literate Blue side of Liddypool.

Actually he does not say Siri can't find an abortion clinic or understand foreigners. He said that according to "the New York Times blog" Siri can't find an abortion clinic and then plays a news clip that claims siri can't understand different accents. The difference may sound a little pedantic but if you watch a few more episodes of the show you will see that it is not.

On the same note, how did you prove him wrong? I could not find any part in the video where he claimed that siri can't understand a scottish accent.

He was making fun of what they were saying, not Siri... Am I wrong?

Success breed jealousy. They just can't stand the fact that Apple rocks! Just a bunch of thieves stealing Steve's ideas. Android is a good example of that.
