> Alexa listens only to the words after the wake word.
It only records after hearing the wake-word. It listens all the time.
> After the first one I checked what was captured, what was stored, what was streamed.

- sib 10y agoAlexa is the service in the cloud - Alexa doesn't get the words that are spoken before the device (the Echo / Dot) detects the wake word.* This sounds like a small distinction, but it is critical to a clear discussion of what's going on. If you review the interaction history in the Alexa app or on Amazon's web site, you won't see those utterances that did not result in detection of the wake word, because that audio was not streamed to the cloud. * Technically, there is a very short buffer of audio that is captured on a rolling basis in order to detect and stream the front of the wake word sound.
