Alexa echo

[Tortuga]

I'm surprised that people are surprised that this happens. I've always assumed that some human interaction was necessary in order to improve the voice recognition system. It's a quality control issue.

We have a witness family whose daughter's name is Alexis.  Alexa listens to everything you say just waiting to break into the conversation...😎

You can change the wake-up word to Echo or Computer, (and I think something else I can't remember).

Did you know Amazon workers can listen to your conversations with Alexa?

We take the security and privacy of our customers’ personal information seriously,” an Amazon spokesman told the publication. “We only annotate an extremely small sample of Alexa voice recordings in order (to) improve the customer experience. For example, this information helps us train our speech recognition and natural language understanding systems, so Alexa can better understand your requests, and ensure the service works well for everyone.”

 

Each member of the Alexa voice review team is responsible for mulling over about 1,000 audio files during each shift, Bloomberg reported. Once the recordings are transcribed and annotated, they are fed back into the software. Employees do not have information that can identify users or accounts.

 

While some reviewers told Bloomberg they’ve heard users singing in the shower, others said they’ve come across potentially criminal behavior. Amazon has a list of steps for workers to follow if they hear something concerning.

I already opted out of that

We got the JW Access working and the daily txt.

But we are having trouble playing the JW Orchestral songs. Is this beyond JW Access?

Jw access now has a new skill. Play sing out joyfully or sing to Jehovah. When you ask for sing out joyfully it gives you a choice meetings, instrumental or chorus.   Hope that helps.
