    Yeah, Like, we are facing a world where faking a celebrity’s voice and having it respond to everything you say completely life-like is a matter of minutes while the “smart” speaker in your house talks like a robocall from the 90s and doesn’t understand a single thing when you don’t adhere to a very specific command syntax.

        Ok Google, switch off the TV.(that is in the same room as you in the Google home app)
        “I’m sorry, I don’t know how to help with that”
        Ok Google, switch off the TV in the living room
        “There was a problem. Please try again in a few seconds”
        Gnah! Ok Google, switch off the TV in the living room!!!
        “Okay, 10h Video of switch off sounds is being played on the device ‘bedroom’”
