It can’t possibly be any more useful than a generic chat bot on a phone. How could it be? I don’t get what the reason is for this product even existing. I read another article that said Amazon has thousands of employees and a large team of executives working on Alexa. That seems like a complete waste. Why aren’t they working on bigger problems like energy or education or healthcare?

apparently its used as a jukebox, a kitchen timer, and news feed.

uses to turn light on and off. modify shopping list, audio streaming, are minor traffic.
