Alexa heard what you did last summer – and she knows what that was, too: AI recognizes activities from sound

Re: More accurate spying - Who wouldn't want that?

"The younger generation is quite adamant about their right to be spied upon"

they have grown up on reality TV... and post their mundane activities on social media like anybody else cares about their bowels or whatever.

yeah, and if one o' those hears ME sneeze it'll sound like... "Ah, Ah, AH SHIT!!!" [yes I really do that, I hate sneezing - it interrupts what I'm doing]. I wonder if it'd call an ambulance, thinking it means "I fell and can't get up" (and of course THAT introduces the topic of false alarms generated by a big-nanny spy-on-your-life system). And no, I don't need Alexa to order me some narcoleptic cold medicine either.
