My neighbors have an Alexa and it is the defining feature of when they have people over. The alley is all plaster and concrete so we hear basically everything in each others apartment. I try to tune out but the yelling at Alexa is so intense its hard to ignore.

They are in the middle of a 10 minute command session trying to get it to play a song from an album, and this happens maybe once every hour on average. They are arguing with each other about how to command the Alexa, interrupting and ruining each command. If they just had a Bluetooth speaker hooked up to their phone it would be done in 10 seconds without yelling, but here we are.

Voice interfaces are misery makers
