5 Siri Swears
Earlier this week, intrepid Reddit users discovered a way to get Siri to say a pretty explicit word. Basically, when asked for a definition of the word “mother,” Siri would inform users that it’s short for a particular expletive that contains the word “mother” (you can probably guess which one).
To be fair, this only occurred when users ask Siri to give the second definition of the word, something that requires users to actively say “yes.” And Siri appears to be pulling the definition from the Oxford Dictionary. While it’s not necessarily Apple’s fault, it does seem like an oversight — particularly as Siri isn’t known for swearing. Apple seems to have silenced Siri’s foul mouth in the days since the incident surfaced, however.
