An automated Twitter account is correcting people who refer to Caitlyn Jenner as "he" instead of "she".

The bot, called @she_not_he, is politely telling people to use the female pronoun when referring to the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, formerly Bruce Jenner.

Jenner has recently started a transition and name change, announced through an interview in Vanity Fair this week.

“I am a bot politely correcting Twitter users who misgender Caitlyn Jenner in their tweets. I might make mistakes reading your tweet. I’m only human (not),” says the bot’s Twitter biography.

The bot isn't always right - it seems to send pronoun corrections to anyone who uses the word "he" in a tweet referencing Jenner - even when they are commenting on the fact that "he" is the wrong word to use.

So far more than 1,200 people have been corrected.

Jenner announced her new name on Twitter, and gained more than a million followers in just four hours.
