Holy shit. When she said "Allegra, what's the weather outside" my Echo Dot actually answered!

[u/falconx50]

That was funny. But damn do I want that wooden and metal skin!

… responds to any name even remotely close to Alexa.

Yeah, but until Echo can respond to, "hey Siri," (and vice versa), I'm still going to be cursing at them (or myself) daily.

"Hey, Siri, tur … fuck! Alexa, turn on kitchen light."

[u/paradism720]

This is pretty funny.

[u/minutemeal]
