Amazon Alexa Tried to Direct Porn to a Child

Amazon has a digital assistant named Alexa who is supposed to help you with things like play your favorite music, check the weather, or provide news updates through your Amazon Echo smart speaker. But for whatever reason, Alexa mistakenly thought this child’s multiple requests to “play Digger Digger” was a call for some explicit porn.

Ah, technology, right? In our quest for finding ways to make our lives easier, artificial intelligence still has trouble deciphering language properly. Watch Alexa go wild below.

The parents who are filming their child realized what was happening and quickly tried to stop Alexa from going into a deeper dark hole of dirty words. Thankfully, the child doesn’t look like he registered anything he heard.

A rep tells Mashablethat the issue has been resolved, and Alexa will no longer have her mind wander in the gutter anymore.

"This issue has been fixed, and we are working to build additional restrictions to prevent this from happening in the future," the spokesperson said. "We have also contacted the customer to apologize."
