A series of internet users have published videos in recent weeks which show various Google products refusing to answer what should be a simple question in, “Who is Jesus Christ”.
In one video published Wednesday, which now has over a million views, a Google voice product is asked who Jesus Christ is before refusing to answer. Amazingly, it then went on to provide detailed summaries of other religious figures such as Allah.
The same question was asked in November 2017 with a completely different answer being given by Google.
“Regardless of what you might think of him personally, Jesus Christ stands as the central figure in the history of Western Civilization.”
As Infowars noted, a video published just today showed a Google phone refusing to answer the question and instead sending the user to a Jehovah’s Witness website.
While many have wondered how this could possibly be happening, when you consider Google’s well known liberal stance, one can imagine that this had to be purposeful in that their product isn’t going to just randomly refuse to answer a simple question about a major religion.
Interestingly, it appears that it is not just Google voice products that are “censoring” Jesus Christ as a video published by Steven Crowder last year showed Alexa doing essentially the same thing.
So what do you think?
Is this a purposeful move by the tech giants to “censor” information about Jesus Christ or is this somehow a sort of bad coding flaw that didn’t have nefarious intentions?
I just went to Google and typed in "who is jesus," and got tons of websites about Jesus Christ, so I don't know about this.
Alexa uses Bing (primarily) for its search results.
Crowder did his video on 11/24/17. Others tried the same and got the same "fictional character" answer.
However, it seems that this turned up some heat on Amazon and now Alexa is just reciting the Wikipedia entry, the same way Siri (also Bing-based) gave me a Wolfram search result.
It's handy for these talking gadgets to be able to blame Wikipedia or Wolfram for giving controversial opinions. And, let's face it, someone will definitely be unhappy no matter what Siri or Alexa say. Then they'll start making smartass YouBoob vids to try to monetize their hurt and outrage.
