Here’s What I Don’t Like About Smart Devices
Earlier this week, Amazon released about 70 odd devices, many of which shipped with Alexa functionality. The products ranged from an upgraded version of Echo speakers to an Alexa-enabled microwave and smart plug, among other things. Google and Amazon are in a never-ending race to cram just about everything they make with Assistant and Alexa functionality. I’ve never been a fan of talking appliances, but it turns out that everyone else is, so it looks like they’re here to stay. I’m not ‘old fashioned’ in any way and love a good gadget like the next person. It’s just the voice command part that puts me off.
