The thing about “artificial intelligence” often is that while there is a lot of “artificial” there, the “intelligence” can be sorely lacking.

I’m considering selling the stock. Already dumped Black Rock and a couple others. But I want to make my opinion know while I have standing.

Alexa should be shut down.

Anyone that goes to alexa or any other AI talker should be shut down.

If they need a bot to tell them whom to vote for, we are beyond help.

Don’t blindly believe this story, regardless of your feelings about Fox News, Trump, Harris or Amazon Alexa. It’s almost certain that this was a phony scenario from the get-go.

For those who do not know: Anyone can easily create an answer for Alexa to intone in response to a defined question. It plays only on the Alexa device owned by the person who wrote the custom question and answer, not all Alexa owners.

In 2020, I did this as a joke for friends who visited me at home. My question was “Alexa, why do I people hate President Trump so much?” The answer was long and as funny as I could make it, including some comments about HRC.

But it is ONLY heard on my Amazon devices, not anyone else’s!

I think FOX was conned on this and inadvertently passed along some ‘fake news’.

I saw that. I wonder when Kamala will speak out against that as censorship.

“If that moron, Harris, wants to fight “racial injustice”

After pondering this for a time, I’ve decided that Obama was right. There is “systemic racism.” I don’t think he ever identified the systems. I think the Democratic party is in charge of racist systems.

In the past, the Democratic party was the slavery party. Democrats segregated the races in America. Indian removal, AKA “the trail of tears,” was the work of two Presidents, both Democrats. The internment of Japanese Americans? Democrats of course.

Democrats operate many systems today to keep Blacks down:
abortion, replacing fathers with government welfare, illegal immigration that pushes wages sown, low quality government schools in Black neighborhoods, incitement to riot (Black neighborhoods only please).

There are no errors in Silicon Valley.
Someone told them to code it this way.

Ask Alexa how many times Kamala donned the knee pads for Willie Brown…

Ask me why I don’t consult Alexa for anything. I can turn on the TV & listen to plenty of the crap plenty of the time.
