Alexa: Funny commands - how to elicit a joke from her

The smart assistance system Alexa from Amazon is now present in many homes. Yet the AI can already understand and respond to most things. But Alexa is not just a robot, she also understands fun and joke questions and usually answers them quite ironically.

What funny commands can Alexa understand?

There are a variety of commands that Alexa will respond to with a funny saying.

1. "Alexa, do the dishes." Alexa will then give you a funny excuse why she can't do the dishes.
2. "Alexa, 99 balloons." - again followed by a funny line.
3. "Alexa, use the Force." A reference to Star Wars is the answer.
4. "Alexa, I am your father". Again, the correct movie quote is the answer.
5. "Alexa, live long and prosper." The well-known saying of Spock from Star Trek is answered correctly by Alexa.
6. "Alexa, beam me up". Again, Alexa responds with the appropriate movie quote.
7. "Alexa, I am Inigo Montoya" - the appropriate movie quote follows promptly as an answer.
8. You can also play "scissors rock paper" with Alexa. Dazu sagen Sie einfach „Alexa, Schick, Schnack, Schuck“.
9. Alexa kann Ihre Sätze vollenden. Sagen Sie beispielweise „Alexa, keine Panik…“ antwortet sie mit dem korrekten Ende des Sprichworts.
10. Auch Weisheiten hat Alexa parat. Fragen sie die Assistentin „Alexa, was ist das Beste im Leben?“ wird sie Ihnen mehrere Antworten geben.
