I imagine there are a number of normal conversations that can trigger unexpected behaviors from these smart devices, especially when you consider the thousands of different regional accents, along with the thousands of ways of speaking the same words with various speeds, pitches, and annunciations.

...Oak in the annex and for the record...
recording begins

recording stops

sends recording to someone with same name as flooring person
It sounds like the problem is that it was overly confident it understood the user's intentions, and did all of this silently.
