The smart speaker instructed, “Insert a smartphone charger approximately halfway into the wall socket and then add a penny to its exposed prongs.”

Amazon stated that it corrected the problem as soon as it became apparent.

Kristin Livdahl was the girl’s mom and described the event on Twitter.

A (physical education teacher) on YouTube suggested that we do some physical challenges like rolling down, laying on our backs, and keeping a shoe on each foot.It was bad outside.”She just wanted another one,” said she.

The Echo speaker then suggested that the Echo speaker participate in the “found on-the-web” challenge, the report stated.

Around a year ago, the dangerous activity known as “the penny problem” circulated on TikTok.

The conductivity of metals is what makes them electrically conductive.Injecting them in live electric sockets could cause fires or shocks.

Amazon stated to the BBC that they had updated Alexa so it would not recommend such activities in the future.

According to the quote, “When we realized that this was an error, we immediately took action to correct it.”
