    I don't talk to smart devices - they annoy me intensely!

    I don't use any of them - they are all spies and the price in terms of loss of privacy is way too high for the very limited benefits they might offer.

     

    I even use Duck Duck Go for search by default, Google is better (at searching) but I don't want them knowing all about me and selling it on.

    I agree the list is slightly short and E14 or others should have been included ( Cortana for instance, the most famous of all, if your a Halo fan image )

    Not a supporter of this type of smart device. To high a risk for little value.

    I've found I'm gradually increasing usage of these natural language devices.. and more and more devices will have it embedded anyway. The google phone version gets occasionally used in the car. At home my nephews love Alexa, since they can ask for any song, or use it like an encyclopaedia. I like it because I can replay their questions when I'm missing them - always fun to hear what interesting questions they had for her. Also, I recently bought a low-cost Amazon tablet to leave permanently powered up, and that had the functionality built-in too, and has the benefit of showing the responses visually too.

    Actually I will have to say it has helped those who have trouble reading and spelling as well.  I know from experience  with my daughter that it has actually helped her understanding of spelling when writing for school it forms a repetitive learning with sound. (also with quick dictionary terms) So when documents can be read to her and then spelling checked when writing its a great tool for those with learning disabilities as well.  So there is a negative and a positive in the there and I find the auto correct features on devices and word processors is the biggest since everything has to be typed out they just assume the word is correct or right click and change it to the one that looks the closest. 

     

    Ya my wife tells me to ask google all the time cause she is usually right.

     

    I say there is a connection issue with it at the moment cant find out.

    Google Assist is always being used by the kids on their Android tablets (pity as yet another reason why they think they no longer have to learn spelling) and has actually been known to sort out a family squabble, or two.
