I see no good coming out of trusting a voice system like Alexa, Google, or Siri when it comes to shopping. Heck, Amazon is an internet retail store, Siri is tied to a store, and Google, well Google would sell it's own momma if it could get away with it. Nope, I'm not going to trust those services to make ANY decisions EVER! Perhaps Millennials need that because they cannot figure out what to do about things, but being an old fart means I learned to make decisions for myself 50 years ago. My parents' generation survived the great depression and WWII and went on to be the only generation to set foot on another terrestrial body. Thankfully they imparted their wisdom on how to make decisions to my generation. "
Voice command decisions? We don't need no stinkin' voice command decisions!"
