Subject: RE: BS: Amazon is laughing at us
I've seen that Alexa thing on the adverts. But I'm not quite clear what it's for. A man asks it to turn the living room blue (!). A lady asks it to call a friend to ascertain whether a little visitor can have ice-cream for breakfast. It orders more provisions when they run out. I can't fathom anyone other than a disabled paraplegic needing these services. Does anyone on here have an Alexa, and if so what does 'she' do for you? (Apart from cackling like a witch in the middle of the night, which would give me a cardiac arrest!)
