I don't know. I have heard that IHLs demand male voices on their Siri and then shout castrating imprecations at them all day at the top of their lungs interspersed with psychotic crying jags and find it very therapeutic.

It would be so cool if somebody could hack iPhones of female owners and have them say
"Madam, make me a sammich."
"Madam, make me a sammich."

So - Siri and Alexa are basically training men to be rapists, according to that last part.
So men now need to be trained? Previous canon held that men were innate, natural rapists.

If you tell Cortana she’s hot, the report frets, she’ll quip that “beauty is in the photoreceptors of the beholder.” Digital assistants “greet verbal abuse with catch-me-if-you-can flirtation” and “give deflecting, lacklustre, or apologetic responses to verbal sexual harassment,” the report says. This response fails “to encourage or model, let alone insist on, healthy communications about sex or sexual consent.”

What's more, "The assistant holds no power of agency beyond what the commander asks of it. It honours commands and responds to queries regardless of their tone or hostility," which reinforces "gender biases that women are subservient and tolerant of poor treatment."
