I don't (and won't) have automated home devices, but on my phone I very much LIKE the awkward artificiality of "OK Google" as a wake up phrase. It makes it very clear that it's a deliberate, conscious choice - no chance of accidentally triggering it by using someone's name or by having one's pronunciation of a word like "silly" parsed incorrectly. When I say "OK Google" it is because I actually want my phone to wake up. For me, it's a very smart move on Google's part
