Warning: My AI assistant tried to order a pizza during a demo
I was showing off a new voice-controlled home system at a tech meetup in Austin, and it misheard 'turn on the lights' as 'order a large pepperoni'. Got a confirmation text from the pizza place 30 seconds later. Anyone else have their automation tools take things way too literally?

Tried to order a pizza during a demo" is a new level of tech fail. I feel for you, that's the kind of thing that would make me just turn the whole system off and pretend it never happened. ninasingh has a point about the free dinner, but now you have to explain to a room full of people why a pizza guy is on his way. My smart speaker once added a hundred dollars worth of cat food to a cart because it heard a TV commercial.
