Need rescuing from a holiday argument, Alexa has you covered

Are you worried about those impending Christmas discussions, or arguments? Well, Amazons Alexa has you covered to help change the subject quickly.

Your favorite virtual assistant has a new feature meant to help families quit bickering during the holidays by merely changing the subject that everyone is talking about.

According to Yahoo.com, the research by the firm found that relatives are most likely to argue at 6:30 p.m. Dec 25, so it programmed the gadget to jump in with questions that will spark a less heated conversation.

When prompted, Alexa will ask safe questions such as, “What would your superpower be and why?” and “Is ‘Die Hard’ a Christmas movie?” according to the report.

Alexa is all about keeping everyone happy and enjoying the Christmas festivities this year. 

To prompt the so-called “distraction technique,” simply say, “Alexa, change the subject!”
