Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson, who lent her voice to operating system named Samantha in the Oscar-nominated film "Her", was recently dissed by Apple's Operating System - Siri.

"Her portrayal of artificial intelligence is beyond artificial," Siri said in a statement.

When Johansson was asked to comment on Siri's comment, the actress replied: "I feel like I've been betrayed. The other day I asked Siri how I looked and she said, 'You're the fairest of them all.' So, she's obviously playing both sides. What the hell? What a backstabber, man."

"Her" will release in India on Feb 14.
