Amazon Alexa accused of 'sexist' reply for this football question, company terms it error

Amazon's virtual assistant, Alexa, has been accused of sexism after it couldn't provide information on England women's football matches. When asked for an update on the Lionesses' Women's World Cup semi-final victory, Alexa said that the match was not taking place that day. Similar issues were also found with the Women's Super League. Amazon has since stated that the problem has been fixed and that it uses automated systems to answer questions, including licensed content providers and websites. https://ift.tt/lnXAkOv
