Clever bit of kit (I am still amazed with the telephone) was house sitting for my son who told me how to get radio stations I wanted on Alexa, as we turned in for the night I just jokingly said "good night Alexa" and bugger me,the thing replied.
Don't worry, be happy

Our son bought us a google home mini for Christmas. We said it is better than having a budgie to talk to, at least you get an answer.

I have never quite understood what these things are actually supposed to do. All seems just a gimmick me.

We've just laughed at our Google Home which answered a Google Home advert on the TV when someone on the advert asked 'Hey Google, what is the weather for today?' Our Google suddenly said 'Sorry, I don't know how to help with that.' I think we may have to move our Google Home away from the TV.
