Tennessee Man Concerned Google Home Will Not Answer Questions about Jesus Christ (goes to The New Yorker)

If you ask an Amazon Echo “Who is Jesus Christ,” the robot will prattle off something from Wikipedia. “Jesus, also referred to as Jesus of Nazareth,” and so forth and so on. But if you ask a Google Home, you’ll get crickets. (Actually, the device will say, “I’m not sure how to help you with that.”) David Sams, a man from Tennessee, is very concerned about this conspiracy. “It’s kinda scary, it’s almost like Google has taken Jesus and God out of smart audio,” Sams told WJLA. “First it started with schools.”

(more, with video)

We don’t have things around here like Amazon Echo or Google Home, so I can’t test this … I’m assuming the man cited (and his friends, there are more of them in the article) gave an unclear question or something, so it must be a conspiracy!!!!

And when was “smart audio” a thing that Google could take Jesus out of?
