Alexa wasn't a big sell to me before I looked at the home automation side of things. Alexa + Hue is pretty fantastic. Settled down for a movie "Alex, dim the lights." Or lying in bed. Or setting a program while on vacation. That plus hooking it up to spotify is pretty great. If you're cooking, "Alex next." etc. The classic "Alexa how many teaspoons are in a tablespoon" comes up from time to time as well. It's 100% a thing no one needs, but certainly has a use.
