Hey/ g/
I was just wondering how you all use your Alexa assistant!

Or do you use google's products instead?

I don't

Like any adware tech, I'll wait until the utility outweighs the botnet. Not even close with voice recognition software

Really??!!!

How can you live without telling Alexa to bring you a pizza? Or to get the door when the pizzaman arrives?

fuck off

Oh, so this thing can BRING pizza? Where does it hide it's legs or wheels though?

You're trying too hard

i don't even get delivery

>Don't use botnet A?
>Why do you use botnet B?
I don't need one.
>order pizza
I can also just call my local pizza guy to do that, no botnet required.
>turn on lights, bath, kettle
That would require me to connect my lights/bath or kettle to the internet, I don't want to do that.
>give footie scores
what? probably don't need that.

Anyway, if you actually wanted these things, why not take a mycroft assistant instead?
Or is connecting a mic and speaker to a PI too hard for nu/g/

Honestly, the botnet fact doesn't bother me. I just don't find it very interesting. I don't perform many tasks that would require a voice assistant.

I just find it weird to speak out loud to do something that'll take me 2 or 3 extra seconds via navigating the menus.
