Alexa lets you do that, and it's fun until you accidentally trigger it during a meeting or phone call.
Google is worse here, you can't change the google wake word at all and I _hate_ having to say "hey google" whenever I wanna use it.
- jjcon 5y agoI switched to Alexa just because I hated saying hey google. I do use the computer wake work and it’s indeed annoying but the fun makes it worth it for me lol
- majewsky 5y agoI mean, it's honest. Using a human voice suggests that you're talking to an individual, only to that one device next to you. Saying "Ok Google" makes it abundantly clear that you're feeding (and being fed by) a planetary-scale hive mind.
