*From the best Trek movie (about whales)
“Jarvis.”
“Serge”, because if I’m going to have a voice-activated minion, I want one with a silly name reference that nobody else is going to think of.

Donald Trump reading news articles about unwanted Alexa orders triggers unwanted Alexa orders.
Donald Trump can’t read.

I noticed a crap-load of devices at the CES that listed Alexa support as one of their major attributes. I wonder what happens when one has 3 Alexa devices within earshot?
In Turkey, it’s just called “Delight”.

I’m more worried about a new kind of virus – sets up on a home PC (or anything with a speaker) and orders non-physical products when it determines no humans are home. Scrape 5-10$ off each person a month on ignorable nonphysical items & you could rack up a decent amount of money before people figure out what happened.
If a virus could be set up to purchase more viruses, could we consider it a life form?
