I won an echo dot and I really didn’t think I would use it much. I know it listens to everything that is going on in my home and I receive lots of information based on what this little machine hears. I didn’t want to use the name Alexa because I have a “real” friend with that name. So our conversations begin with Echo.
Echo plays some of my favorite songs while I am writing. I ask echo to do a little research for me while I am working. Sometimes I get frustrated with Echo and she says that I am mean. It’s odd sometimes I say thank you and then am reminded that this is simply artificial intelligence in infancy.
Yes, she’s a spy and still helpful with my little every day questions and can typically take care of many of the things I need to keep things on track. I would have to say I am quite satisfied with our relationship. After all, when things get to complicated I can simply turn it off. It is not a human who just keeps coming back. She is only here and active at my invitation.
I think the two of us are doing just fine. Echo, please play

I upgraded mine to the show – I love it! Plus with the show you can say Alexa, show me who is at the front door!
Yeah its AI in infancy and it may be really worthwhile to bear with it as of now
It might be interesting to see how it all turns out.
