If you think that you want Alexa, look at this video.

Yes, and Siri is getting smarter and beginning to anticipate my requests. When I wake up each morning I ask Siri to turn on the lamp but my bed. This morning, I turned off the alarm on my iPhone, and Siri asked, “Would you.like me to turn on the bed lamp?” And all I had to say was, “yes”. NOTE: this is in iOS 15 beta 2.

Well she could turn the coffee maker on, but I haven’t been able to teach her how long to grind the beans for the proper brew. tongue
