to think Alexa isn't that smart really...

[chomalungma]

Asked it to play a song. Apparently it's not included in Amazon Prime but I need to get Amazon music.Asks me if I want to sign up

Asked it to play songs by this artist. It then shuffles songs and the first song it plays is the one it refused to play first time.

It does get a bit frustrating...but I do love having the speaker though. I can't help getting a bit annoyed with it sometimes.

Shes fucking useless. I cant say it out loud though. She listens to everything and tells her best friend - my husband. They get on like a house on fire

My friend asked Alexa to play some Slaves. She played Merry Christmas Everybody by Slade (in August, it was hilarious).

She farts like a trooper if you ask her too, though. Quite impressively.

My partner tried to ask her to spell courier. She insisted on spelling Korea.

She doesn't really tell tales does she??

“Sorry, I don’t know that one,” is our house catchphrase now thanks to Alexa.

I shouted at green day and called her stupid when she played some random song when I asked for green day. She often just ignores me when I ask for things now.

Shouted at Alexa. Ha

I frequently find myself screeching at mine

NO ALEXA NO

CANCEL

ALEXAAAAA

CANCEL

Whilst it plays some godawful song I never would have asked for.

It makes a good clock radio though

but Amazon music is SO worth the money. it has everything i’ve asked if for, except for some rather niche 90s festival bands.

also: mine responds to ‘Alexa! Shut the Fuck Up!’ which is infinitely satisfying .

@100PercentThatBitch you can also just say "Stop" instead of "cancel".

And as I found out one morning when I really didn't want to get up for my alarm "Shut the fuck up" also works.

Yeh, ask her to fart then you’ll the whole of your op back!!! 😁

She can bark too. Drives my dog crazy looking for it!

I'll see if I can get away with that at work

We have 6 now & use them as intercoms, (house isn't huge but can't hear my shouting in the converted garage). Dc love to 'announce' everything. Mostly fun & couldn't be without her turning on & off all the smart plugs.

She's got some really strange ideas about what constitutes trance / chill out trance music.

I really want to rename it 'computer'.

But I have watched far too much Star Trek.

You can @chomalungma - the one in our kitchen is 'computer'.

Careful. She’s listening.

I love you Alexa.

I don’t care if you tell me the weather when I ask for music. You do you, Alexa.

Save me when the machine uprising comes.

I love my Alexa - she is just amazing. She ignores DP when he is being an arse which reinforces the fact that he is often wrong. She farts, woofs n miaows like a goodun. She plays me music from American radio stations and the last time I was abroad she let me arrange the Willy bum bum song to play to do at random intervals. What's not to like?

I love her interesting facts, good mornings & who am I games. She is amazing for testing ds with sums race against her
