I have seen and heard the voice of
evil, and it is... Siri!
Yes, you read it right. I have
empirical, undeniable evidence that Siri, that omnipresent artificial
thinking voice that roams around our Iphones with the answers to
everything, is actually the voice of evil. Let me explain.
A few weeks ago my wife and I were
preparing to attend a special couples fireside with Elder Todd D.
Christofferson as the main speaker (you can read more about that here). These preparations included synching complex schedules, which
led to a few uncharacteristically frosty verbal exchanges between us.
As soon as I realized my need to confess and forsake the sin of
being impatient, I dictated to Siri a quick message to be sent to my
sweet wife. It was supposed to be an apology, coupled with the
hypothesis that perhaps the adversary is working on us overtime
because he knows that learning from the feet of an apostle would
thwart his evil designs. Instead, it came out like this:
Siri, in the process of analyzing the
context of my verbal statement and moving it from speech to text,
made the command decision that it was, in fact, the adversary- the
evil one, Lucifer, Satan , etc.
Another possible explanation for Siri
replacing the “adversary” title with her own name is that it was
trying to fulfill latter-day prophecies contained in 2nd
Nephi 28:21-22, which predicts thatwe would be taught from all sides
of society that there is no devil or hell.
A third option could be that I slurred
pronunciation of the word “adversary” in my verbal command to
Siri, and it automatically defaulted to what it deemed to be the next
best word- “Siri.”
In any case, those of us who carry
Iphones around need to be extra careful. We now have cause to wonder-
which side is Siri on?
