Google is coming in for sharp criticism after video went viral of the Google Nest assistant refusing to answer basic questions about the Holocaust — but having no problem answer questions about the Nakba.

This just seems like a bug. I just tried it on my phone and it works fine. Meanwhile it won’t understand “Nakba”, it keeps thinking it was some english word.
I think there’s a Google speaker sitting at my home so I’ll test that and get back to you guys, so you don’t have to trust tabloids and twitter users.
Results:
Phone: Holocaust - works, Nakba - does not understand
Speaker: holocaust - works, Nakba - does not
Results are in, I got pretty much the exact opposite this guy did

That’s not how jokes work.
You just sound like you hate Jews.
Yea that “joke” that doesnt even have a punchline is just acting like jews act the way israel does. Which is rare if it happens at all.
For what it’s worth, the phone is going through Gemini unless you opted out, whereas the speaker goes through their legacy voice assistant.
Though per the article this has already been fixed.
I opted out, I’m still on the regular assistant
