If you could see all the radio waves bouncing around your house you would probably be quite surprised, but nearly every gadget we own creates them. Occasionally those electromagnetic waves cause interference. I've heard static from interference coming over my radios at the same time that Alexa will suddenly wake up and say she didn't understand my request, which was never asked of course. I also see Alexa light up a lot for a brief moment but never make a sound. I guess in those cases she thought perhaps I was asking a question but then determined I wasn't.
Yep, me too. I'm wondering when Alexa is going to order me a new Cadillac. After all, she can order an Uber now, why not leave the driver behind?
