Watch: What if Amazon Alexa were actually a Communist? Amazon Echo gives her a voice
Of course it’s a parody. At least, right now.
What if Amazon Alexa, the voice-controlled personal information service, and Amazon Echo, the flagship smart speakers connected to it, were to be Communists?
Dr Grandayy, who runs a spoof video channel on YouTube, has some ideas.
Alexei is intent on helping the proletariat seize the means of production from the bourgeoisie. And she wants to ensure that capitalist society “trembles at a Communist revolution”.
When asked how many teaspoons make a tablespoon, she responds unhesitatingly: “three equally distributed teaspoons”. And her choice of joke? “Capitalism is the best economic system.”
