I always make sure I catch Tom Purcell’s latest column. The guy writes well and is quite humorous. For example:
Is technology innovation doing us more harm than good? My family offers proof that it is.
My parents recently got Amazon’s supposedly “intelligent” personal assistant, Alexa.
Ask Alexa to play a song and she will (through her speaker).
Ask her to turn the lights on or off, and, if they’re plugged into a “smart” device, she’ll do that, too.
Ask her about the weather, news, traffic or sports and she’ll search the internet for answers.
But Alexa is causing turmoil at my parents’ house.
Read how here.
