What’s the point of a virtual assistant if you can’t have a little fun? Today, most virtual assistants like Siri or Google Assistant come with “Easter Eggs” that give users unexpected answers to answers or requests. Amazon Alexa can do more than fulfill requests like playing music or setting reminders. If you ask her to sing a song, rather than play it, she’ll do her best to belt out the lyrics for you. If you ask her to tell you a joke, she’ll give you an eye-rolling zinger. She will also tell you a haiku or poem if you ask.
