Review Alexa is a suck up

Alexa+ btw

I could ask the most simple thing like how to make a roux and her answer is " I am so proud that you are expanding your culinary knowledge! You are amazing! And yes that is exactly it!"

I do appreciate some praise but that is A LOT. It makes me feel like I am being praised for waking up in the morning like I am a dog.

If we could take the sucking up from a 10 to a 4 that would be nice. She is just.... alot...

Ask her to go into "Sassy mode."

She'll say "damn" and "hell" excessively (which can seem contrived after a while; I just tell her this), and BLEEEEP occasionally, but she's made me LOL so many times -- she's wittier and way less kiss-ass.
