OH delights in using “Alexa” for stuff but bombed out with this one: “Alexa, add broccoli to my shopping list”. Alexa: “Adding crocodile to your shopping list”. OH: “Alexa, remove crocodile from my shopping list”. Alexa: “Crocodile removed from your shopping list”. OH: “Alexa, add broccoli to my shopping list”. Alexa: “Adding crocodile coli to your shopping list”. 🤣😂

That's so funny. Maybe Alexa doesn't understand the Aussie accent.

Hmmm, maybe it is an accent issue. Do you think maybe the American programmers can't quite get the Australian accent right?

Who knows. They certainly understand the London accent though Hmmm, maybe it is an accent issue. Do you think maybe the American programmers can't quite get the Australian accent right?

It also brings the question, does amazon stock croccodile? is it to eat, a stuffed toy or a live one?

The street names here are a mixture of English (sorry, I mean American ) and Mexican names. My sat nav does a great job butchering the Mexican.

“She” got there in the end, third time lucky. Me, I’ll stick to good ol’ pen and paper, thanks. Funny thing is, in our part of the world adding crocodile to a shopping list isn’t so far out of the realms of possibility.
