Ever wondered how Alexa pulls up information about Primary Interstate Highways? The primary source is obviously from Wikipedia, so you probably know more than she ever will ;)

Anyway, I use this voice command feature on occasion to test my roadgeek knowledge, as I don't always have the time and opportunity to do a simple Google and Wikipedia search for Primary Interstate Highways.

The only amusement I've ever gotten out of Alexa is adding ridiculous stuff to my Wife's grocery list and asking it if it is; Sky Net, HAL9000,  a Cylon or some other infamous AI with malicious intent.

I can imagine that one somehow...

It will flatly deny being Sky Net.
