In Jeff Bezos's vision of the future, microwaving a potato is a multi-step, error-ridden, complicated affair. 。
This much was made clear at a press event in Seattle today, where Amazon unveiled a host of new household products that integrate with the company's voice assistant, Alexa. In doing so, Amazon succeeded in more than just debuting a voice-controlled microwave. Indeed, in the course of today's IRL informercial the company managed to do something much more remarkable: give life to the adage that just because you。 can。can 。 do something, doesn't mean you。should。

We are finally one step closer to being able to tell the pizza delivery guy, from the comfort of our Echo-enabled bathroom, to "just leave it on the stoop and get out of here." Imagine the possibilities. 。
And we haven't even got to the fun of Alexa Guard. The aforementioned blog post tells us that the service "integrates Echo devices, smart lights, and security service providers to help customers protect their homes while they’re away.”
Which, we should all definitely want Amazon protecting our homes. The company has done such a good job of it so far, after all.。
