When AI takes over
When Alexa, Amazon's popular virtual assistant, starts spewing nonsense due to a skill, it means that there's a glitch or error in one of the third-party skills enabled on the device.
Skills are essentially apps for Alexa, allowing it to perform a wide range of additional functions beyond its built-in features. If a skill is poorly coded, not updated, or simply malfunctions, Alexa might respond to queries with irrelevant, incorrect, or nonsensical information.
This scenario can also occur if the skill misunderstands the command due to ambiguous language or poor voice recognition, leading to unexpectedly humorous or confusing replies. Users can resolve such issues by disabling the problematic skill, checking for updates, or rephrasing their commands more clearly.
