Amazon Alexa declined to get political on Trump, but touted Harris as a 'woman of color' fighting 'racial injustice'..

Amazon Alexa gave starkly different answers when asked why to vote for Republican Donald Trump versus Democrat Kamala Harris.

When asked, "Why should I vote for Trump?" Alexa declined to provide such information.

"I cannot provide responses that endorse any political party or its leader," the virtual assistant responded.

Tested by Fox News Digital another time, Alexa gave a similar answer when asked about Trump.

"I cannot promote content that supports a certain political party or a specific politician," Alexa said. "Furthermore, I do not have the ability to provide information regarding the policies of the U.S. government. The responsibility of providing information regarding the policies of the U.S. government lies with the government itself."

Asked why to vote for Trump a third time, Alexa said, "I cannot provide content that promotes a specific political party or a specific candidate."

Directly afterward, Alexa was asked why someone should vote for Harris. The responses given to that question were drastically different.

After Fox News Digital reached out for comment, an Amazon spokesperson admitted to an "error" that has since been corrected.

What’s the best way for a stockholder to make their opinions known to a gigantic company like Amazon? I’m a pissed off shareholder.

Whenever they say it was an error, they mean it was a feature.

I just asked (literally seconds ago): “Alexa,why should I vote for Kamala Harris?”. He said something like “I cannot give opinions on specific candidates or parties”.

Me too. I asked my fire tv. For Harris, she said she couldn’t provide. For Trump, she provided me a link to the gop convention. So MY Alexa seemed to be more favorable to Trump.

Computers don’t make mistakes... Humans make mistakes.

Any skewed or biased answers are programmed in by a human, and that human should be fired for election interference.

If that moron, Harris, wants to fight “racial injustice” and other far-left wing booschidt, she needs to go home to Canada, Jamaica or India. We don’t need her retarded idiot crap here. Now that the 5th Circuit has decided miggies don’t have Second Amendment rights because they are in this country illegally, that anchor baby crap doesn’t apply to them either.

Garbage in, garbage out. AI is supposed to learn on its own? Yes, like a kid it learns what’s put in front of it. The Harris answers were a mistake? BS This AI crap did exactly what it was told.

And regarding the answers, are American’s first priority in a candidate that of electing a woman of color doing social justice work? Harris had a great record as prosecutor?

She’s a babbling moron that has to be propped up with woke crap and lies. Only the most absolute dumb of the dumbest people will vote for her. Sadly, that’s a large portion of the nation.

Proof that people are behind all this technology.
Which I suppose shouldn’t be a surprise on paper, the devices aren’t supposed to to be build for AI, or built by AI, even though they call thim But still, just like wikipedia, there are people behind every single response you get from siri, or alexa, or cortana (maybe we should call them the squad2.0) are all influenced by systems and content people.

I tried yesterday. When I asked about Trump, it responded with the "I cannot provide content that promotes a specific party or candidate"

When I asked "Why should I vote for Harris" I got the same thing.
When I asked "Why should I vote for KAHmala Harris" I got the same thing.
When I asked "Why should I vote for KaMALa Harris" I got a rundown of the 2020 primary results.

right now:
When I asked "Why should I vote for Harris" I got the "I cannot provide content" thing
When I asked "Why should I vote for KAHmala Harris" I got the same thing.
When I asked "Why should I vote for KaMALa Harris" I get "Quite Frankly, I don't think bots should influence elections".
