I don’t want to interact with the companies they represent basically at all, let alone give them nearly unfettered access to my electronics and their data.
I’ve dabbled in the virtual assistants because I wanted to see what they can do. Siri (it’s been years so I don’t know if it improved), Alexa, Google, are all horse shit. Every time I try to use them it works like garbage. They either trigger incorrectly or try to implement something I don’t want. The few times they do work correctly I don’t trust them because of all the other garbage experiences so I have to double check what they did. That negates the entire point from a time and convenience standpoint.

Google really wants to refer me to a garage door company instead of closing the damn thing.
