A dad has been left gobsmacked after his new Alexa device gave him a shockingly brutal response when he asked it how to make his children stop laughing. Adam Chamberlain, 45, posted a video of the exchange online which has now gone viral, as he claimed the virtual assistant suggested he "punch his kids in the throat".
The pub landlord, from Sheffield, said he was asking his Alexa various questions to try and prompt funny responses from it after he saw a post online that compiled all the bizarre things you can get the device to say. Despite being prepared for some odd answers, Adam was still "shocked" by what he heard.
