Amazon says the device’s pro-Harris answers were due to software errors, but conservatives allege a liberal bias
Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant has caused an uproar among conservatives after viral videos showed the device giving supportive answers about voting for Kamala Harris, while refusing to respond to similar questions about Donald Trump.
The issue was due to a software update intended to improve the quality of Alexa’s functions and its artificial intelligence operations, according to leaked documents obtained by the Washington Post.
