I met an Amazon Echo developer once. Apparently the biggest use case for voice assistants is getting the weather.

Anecdotally- my household use is 50% weather, 30% public radio, 18% Spotify, 2% random google searches / trivia

You don't use timers?

We're 50% timers, 25% shopping lists, and another 95% the kids asking it to do animal noises.

Ha! You’re right. I forgot about timers, it’s definitely mostly timers - multiple, undifferentiated, timers running simultaneously.

Revised: 50% timers 28% weather, 10% public radio, 10% Spotify, 2% random google searches / trivia
