Is SIRI being politically correct on Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner? Perhaps, perhaps not. I don't think it's being so deliberately, but rather it depends on what database SIRI finds the answer to the specific question.

As WarDaddy said:

I just said Bruce Jenner to SIRI on my iPhone 6plus

And she gave me a wiki type entry and asked if this was what I was looking for

I did some experimenting

The Bruce Jenner to Caitlyn Jenner response when asking "How tall is Bruce Jenner?" comes from Wolfram Alpha the primary source of such data. . . but if you ask Siri "Who is Bruce Jenner" Siri responds with a legitimate Wikipedia biography response on Bruce Jenner, not Caitlyn Jenner.

it appears that it is a bit schizophrenic, depending on the database source of the answer being linked into, and the political correctness of the organization maintaining the database. Looks like a crap shoot to me. It does not look as if Siri has been deliberately programed to answer one way or the other on Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner. — PING!

Bruce or Caitlyn?
Does Apple's Siri know the difference?
Ping!

If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.

Timmy Cook is an aggravant

But this is a non sequitur

(Is that an appropriate use of the word?)

Interesting... thanks for the info. It looks like that site is crowd sourced so I’m sure the gaystapo updated bruce’s info at some point.
