Maybe it's just my accent, but whenever I'm around someone else's device (Alexa most recently) wakes up multiple times and responds to something we didn't say.

Maybe it's just my accent, but whenever I'm around someone else's device (Alexa most recently) wakes up multiple times and responds to something we didn't say. The worst part is, when we tell it to stop (potentially flagging it as incorrect), how do we know that conversation isn't being analyzed to "improve" the model? We never used the wake word, so we don't know how long it was listening. It's hard for me to think of them as anything other than creepy. I want to like them; I like the idea of being able to have the convenience of vocal interactions with technology. But, until I'm convinced that it is entirely on my own terms, that's not going to happen.
