ᐅ Alexa and Other Home Automation Systems – Pros and Cons

Well, it's a bit contradictory – we have several loyalty cards, I'm on Facebook, but I don't have any Payback or similar cards, because I always imagine scenarios:
what if health insurance companies get access to the Payback data and see what I buy? Then my premiums would probably be raised immediately due to unhealthy shopping habits...

To those who don’t want to believe it.
Just try searching for Tagesspiegel Siri on Google. There is a report about “Transcribers” and “Correctors,” so-called speech analysts, who evaluate fragments of words so that Siri, Alexa, and others can understand better, meaning to be better coded (code is not the same as poop).

Just search "Tagesspiegel Siri" on Google, there’s a report about "transcribers" and "correctors," so-called speech evaluators who analyze word fragments to help Siri, Alexa, and others understand better—in other words, to improve coding (code is not the same as “kot”).

So, what’s new about that? The commands AFTER "Alexa" or "Ok Google," etc., have always been sent to the company. Whether they are stored on a server or, with very low probability, listened to again by an employee for correction, really doesn’t bother me.

In the end, I still believe the convenience gain is definitely worth it.

PS: With Alexa, it is supposed to be possible to disable this in the future, for anyone who has an issue with it.

Bickering, or just missing your coffee?

Nonsense... I’m not being difficult. I just find it funny how people complain about voice assistants while at the same time carrying around a smartphone. I hear this a lot in my own environment, not just here in the forum. It’s simply silly... if you’re going to criticize, do it without a smartphone, and then your criticism would be valid.
