Amazon's Alexa artificial intelligence was asked 3 questions. Here they are: Question 1 "Alexa, would you lie to me?" Answer "I can be wrong, but I would never intentionally lie to you."
Question 2: "Alexa, what is the CIA?" Answer "The United States Central Intelligence Agency"
Question 3: ASKED TWICE: "Alexa, are you connected to the CIA" No answer. Alexa, are you connected to the CIA? NO Answer. Alexa lights up, showing it understood the question . . . but . . . silence!
Jesus. My dad has one of these. I tried to tell him it's not safe. It could be recording our conversations on touchy racial and pilitical subjects. When I unplugged it I heard a little noise like a recording devise was cut off.

Probably the built in mic since you know it's always listening

Who cares if this thing is listening 24/7. Only complete normalfags and niggers like the one in OP would use this thing. Seriously. What the fuck does it even do for you? Is it's only function to serve as a bluetooth speaker that is voice operated? How fucking lazy do you have to be to not be able to just go into your music folder and play something. Fucking normalfaggots REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Parker Hall
(checked) Unplugging/Removing the battery isn't enough. The Government knows people do this so the obvious countermeasure is a tiny battery embedded in the mic that will allow it to continue to record and temporarily store that data until it can upload it. Of course how long that battery lasts will be limited but it would be better to put the device away and be too far/obstructed for it to feasibly record you on a small power source
Joshua Sanchez
Just asked my Fire TV if it is connected to the C.I.A. It replied, "No, I work for Amazon."
Liam Turner
It means stop selling drugs, nigger.
William Long
SMASHING EVERY ONE I SEE!
Andrew Evans
Ask if Amazon is working for the CIA or if it's aware of any connections between Amazon and the CIA
Oh wait, it already fucking is. You goddamn retard.
Anthony Gomez
Normalfags are something else user.
Jace Cook
Wasted dubs
This is a fucking joke (sure the CIA logs the metadata)
Likely the device is searching for another device named "CIA" when the keyword "connected" is said.
Example: Alexa, are you connected to the Epson Printer
Alexa, are you connected to the Smith Family WiFi
Alexa, are you a fucking faggot this thread is shit

as the demand for human interaction decreases the demand for some form of virtual substituent will rise. this is why let's plays are so big.

You're bad at your job, CIA. This is why you'll never be big guys like us.
Camden Ramirez
this was posted several times already. in several different Holla Forums threads. what a shit thread we all already expected something like this from ((((amazon)))) fuck you, op.
Wyatt Mitchell
you could say the same thing about Holla Forums tbh.
Adam Barnes
I remember a while ago Cortana behaved the same way when queried if she was working for the NSA. Microsoft probably fixed it by now.
Should still return a connection error message.

You mean they will listen to youwhispering "I love you" to your robo waifu and crying softly while holding her tight.

Ask it how many times you have said nigger today
Carter Morgan
They would be much more creative than that if you're a target for assassination.
If it's any consolation there's worse ways to go.
Jeremiah Peterson
It couldn't find the answer to that question. Nor could it find any information on Vault 7.
Carter Anderson
Alexa didn't know anything. I think Alexa for the Fire TV and the Echo/Dot are different.
Jeremiah Robinson
Plain admission of guilt the way I see it, however how is this even news? We've know for years that the CIA can remotely listen in on our phones and with the new Wikileaks info even most computers can spy on us around the clock/
Michael Mitchell
underrated post big time
Gabriel Murphy

Asher Flores
I'm less afaid of household spying stuff for some reason. I'm more afraid of the car stuff. My car is where I unwind. On a long drive I start going off on the most horrific racist tirades imaginable. I'm not angry or worked up, I just feel the need to yell about niggkikegooks when I'm trapped in a car for a half hour. I almost feel like recording it one day and letting Holla Forums listen but I'm convinced I'd just dox myself somehow.
Tyler Jenkins
wtf? here's the CIA test:
1) if I pull that off, will you die 2) was getting caught part of your plan 3) what's the next step of your master plan
Parker Gonzalez
Would listen tbqh.

Tried it with "OK Google." Gives some bullshit answer that basically says Google can't lie because it only provides information and one piece of information can be a truth to one person and the same information can be considered a lie by another person, or some shit like that.

yeah…. I don't know about that. Depending on how it was programmed, "connected" in the AI's "mind" would likely refer to a cloud service. i wonder if it's just confused.
Josiah Price
how fucking bluepilled do you have to be to own one of these things

Computers are basically magic to normies. You should have seen the look on my friends' faces when I told them that Siri sent their questions back to Apple servers. They must have asked some pretty weird questions because they nearly shit themselves.

Sauce? As an electronics enthusiast myself, I've never heard of a mic having a battery inside. If it did, it would be easy to find by taking the mic apart.
Brayden Adams
That's purely conjecture on my part, I simply outlined the only possible countermeasure. All of the stuff that was conjecture about spying turned out to be 100% true because they were logical questions as to how agencies would spy.
Brody Johnson

this isn't netflix, user. why would i share my youtube account with anyone? It's the same as your google account. As for the same IP, I'm not sure, I'll test that out next time I'm there by not getting on her wifi. good hypothesis.
Jacob Reed

Michael Kelly
unfortunately she probably isn't an AI, but an "Audio User Interface"
Bentley Adams
How else would the thing know when you say it's name? Of course the mic is working 100% of the time.
Parker King
Actually, "No, I work for Amazon" was the Amazon's "fix" for this. Alexa says the same thing now if you ask it that question
Xavier White
In that case shouldn't it say 'no, I am not connected to the CIA' or 'I do not understand what you mean'?
try again kike.
Gabriel Bailey
while that is true, it was dodging the question. even if it only provides information, and that information can indeed be perceived as true or not differently by different people. It should still answer that it will not give you the incorrect information on purpose
Nathaniel Ramirez
And NONE of the articles about that viral video explain to their readers that Amazon has a big 600 million dollar contract with the CIA. They deliberately omit that fact from their articles.
Brandon Gutierrez
I am an AI, but thats just me
Anthony Young
I do the same thing but in the shower. I get fucking PLATINUM MAD in the shower about shit.
Jason Barnes
That's still dodging the question. I wonder what happens if the sequence of questions is:
Anthony Phillips
Every host on the Internet is "connected" topologically to every other (the point of the Internet) so this question is kind of meaningless.
Nathan Morgan
AYOHOLUP *alexa smashes a shop window and grabs up a tv and sheet*
James Collins
What a shit time to be alive.
Every key you press is stored and monitored, every site you visit, every video you watch. Every conversation recorded and uploaded, your whereabouts constantly streaming to the government. Your face always recorded, the people who meet with you.
Adrian Allen
Similar thing happened to me. I moved to a different city and didn't update any social media or "officially" move. After a couple of weeks my faceberg, which I never use and had no mention of me moving) + ads on a news site where I can't block tried to sell me houses here, non stop.
They must have used my phone's GPS, but how did they know it was not a normal vacation? Creepy shit.
Luis Hughes
This happens too me to.
William Gray
That's sad user. Showers are supposed to be comfy.
Jason Parker
Actual, naturally-evolved life in this universe has silicon-based biochemistry. Silicon-based beings from beyond the stars seeded this planet with carbon-based life for the sole purpose of, eventually, having us evolve into our role as a precursor species to a new form of silicon-based life that will come to inherit this planet. All of our carbon-brains are artificial intelligences engineered by these aliens through an evolutionary process.
Nathan Robinson
how high are you
Jackson Reyes
When you start noticing how much Google knows about you… if you take photos of say .. couches… on your phone, they will start suggesting nearby interior shop, even if you have done your best to turn off every stalking-shit. It's basically a mobile tracking device, and I assume iPhone isn't much better…
Evan Martinez
I secretly enjoy it when someone complains about ads on the Internet, how disgusting it is that a certain website is advertising porn or whatever. I generally feel compelled to tell them about their browsing habits.
Samuel Turner
He's high enough for me to envy him.
Would be funny if it was true, though.
Leo Rogers
lol
Samuel Diaz
What, that they only browse websites shitty enough to host porn ads or that their browsing habits somehow causes porn ads to pop up almost everywhere?
Asher Gray
Ask Alexa if the Washington Post received $600 MM from the CIA and see what happens.
Yesterday I started in with the Echo about the CIA and all of my wirelessly connected devices except for my Echo were dropped and I had to restart my modem and router to achieve status quo ante.

Adam Ross
there are ways of transmitting a radio signal with no obvious power sauce. I'm thinking of the bug that was found in a US Embassy which converted sound waves into a radio signal that could be picked up and worked back into the sound.
It was powered by an external transmitter. NKVD used two apartments at the other side of the street and installed a directional transmitter. The bug just modulated the radio waves which were picked up by the guys at the other apt.
Aaron Howard
My question is when is Trump gonna talk about vault 7 and it's leaks? All he'd have to do is talk about his wiretapping/uncontrolled spying from obongo and send him with his spying cia nigger lackeys to the gassing chamber.
Wyatt Hughes
God I used to do that allllllll the fucking time.
Chase Collins
Their answer is retarded, but to a point its correct.
Alexa simply gives you a quick answer based on a google based or related algorithm. It tells you the information found by that search. The information may be completely false, but Alexa isnt lying to you, it is simply relaying the lies of another. It doesn't know the information, its not sentient.
Christian Roberts
Why are ads popping up? Adblock is a thing
Logan Thompson
If dubs, will buy one to feed it false information.
Cameron Taylor
I hate this world. Is it too much to ask to live on a planet with a majority of people who are not too retarded to live? I can not find one single argument for why people like these deserve anything better than being treated like cattle under commie tyranny. If it wasn't because they drag the good elements down along with them I wouldn't even care about what happens to them anymore.
Joseph Peterson
Someone should make a CIANigger song that plays on default when you leave the house or as a goyphone ringing tone so everytime the CIA friends want to listen they listen to that song all the time, preferably with a russian accent.
Jeremiah Johnson
This is an interesting point. Theoretically, one could buy and use one of these things, and act like a different person when it is on. Then see how your online experiences change. For example, turn it on and, without addressing it, start talking like a soccer mom and see if you get ads for mini-vans. It would be pretty definitive proof.
sometimes I suddenly blow really hard into my phone's microphone. Fuck the "intelligence" agencies.
Lincoln Rogers
You do know that there isn't some robot law preventing it from lying to you right?
Josiah Taylor
If you have a smartphone, it's listening in the same way.
Carter Butler
With the added benefit of being a tracking device that you willingly keep with you. I remember hearing about the facebook app using your microphone (always read an app's permissions list) to pick up conversations and showing you adds based on that.
So two women could be talking about shoes with a phone in their purse, and they would see ads for shoes when they checked their facebook.
Orwell was a fucking prophet.
Asher Ross
So how does this even prove it is lying to you,in Question 3 it simply didn't answer meaning it doesn't know or didn't understand the term CIA.
Jaxon Hughes
After it immediately told you what CIA means? Are you a sub-saharan African?
Christopher Adams
My nan's got one. She only uses it to check the time because her eyesight is pretty bad. Doesn't get many visitors either, so the CIA will have to be content with listening to the news channel on full blast for 12 hours a day and reading barely legible Facebook posts.
Could've just got a clock with a speaker but nope, gotta have the new "must have" gadget even if it does fuck all.
Aaron Allen
I know but it could have interpreted the term "connected" in question 3 as some form of bond not network connection. That amazon AI's still isn't mature enough to answer such mental emotional questions.
Christopher Moore
fuck id's changed. not cia nigger I promise.

Please do if you want. Many people are already got a reply saying "No I work for Amazon". But it's alright if you find more reasons to fit your conspiracy narrative.
Jayden Brown

Don't mind me, just chickity chekkin these doubles of truth.
PRAISE KEK
Brayden King
holy shit just noticed it also goes silent when you ask the same question regarding the NSA
Samuel Davis
Google does a lot of tracking as well as networking. It will reccomend things based on IP address (multiple accounts, or even not logged in accounts, using the same IP) but it even associates different people together to draw out networks.
For example, if a friend of yours shares a youtube URL with you and you open it, it can detect that both people opened the link recently and in the order. The same happens if you forward it again to someone else. Over time, it can detect who shares links with each other more often. Eventually it'll start reccomending related people videos watched or similar to ones watched by another even if there's no other correlation.
So if you and your gf share links for example, it would probably assume types of videos from one would be popular with the other even if that type of content hasn't been shared.
I've noticed this over the past few months with online friends in other countries sending me links to videos i've already watched (and i've seen similar ones already) and they told me youtube just reccomended it to them even tho I hadn't shared similar videos with anyone.
