Many users of "smart" multimedia speakers "Amazon Echo" complained to the manufacturer in a very unusual and unpleasant problem, which appeared recently from the electronics. Of the cylindrical speakers, for no reason began to be heard the eerie laughter.

Especially scary for the owners of the speakers becomes, if it occurs in the middle of the night. Very impressionable person, even believe that their speakers inhabit laughing ghosts. This is not surprising, as urban legends about possessed by evil forces technique known since then as the first personal computers.

Of course, experts claim that nothing supernatural is not here. According to them, is a mysterious glitch in the built-in voice assistant "Alexa". This intelligent program allows you to do, "talking" with a column for purchases, call the emergency services to access various Internet resources and so on.

But why "Alex" suddenly "freaked out" and began to laugh demonically, to say with precision is impossible. Someone thinks that the virtual assistant responds to certain words of those around you and laughs in response, just like a living person. However, why from the speakers is heard sinister laughter at night, when all around is quiet, can't even explain representatives of the company "Amazon"
