Summary | Amazon's new chatbot Alexa is constructed to make life easier for us: it is an assistant that gets you the information you need or fetches (orders) groceries for you. You can operated without hands by simply calling "Alexa" and the microphone and speaker station will 'wake up' to follow your instruction. But while the artificial intelligence bot learns to be more humanoid from us, we are likely to lose human interactional abilities if we start speaking with robots on regular basis.
