Well ha! Not having an Amazon Echo is finally paying off for me. Because Alexa has been going haywire for users—laughing out of nowhere. And we’re talking in the middle of the night, during conversations.

My mother and I were having a conversation and our Amazon Echo let out the creepiest laugh completely unprompted. Idk what was so funny, Alexa but please don’t try to kill me in my sleep

Yahoo! says the company hasn’t responded about what could be causing the issues with the Amazon Echo and/or Alexa. So it looks like this is the start of robots taking over the world.
