Who said that only human beings can make online shopping? In fact, let’s go back a few years to tell you how much a African gray parrot named Rocco was found to use secretly AlexaAmazon’s vocal assistant, to do the online shoppingobviously without the permission of his mistress.
Rocco has become famous for his ability to repeat sentences listened to by humans And, thanks to this ability, it started to interact with Alexa independently. Your favorite “purchases”? Ice cream, strawberries, broccoli, raisins, watermelon And other foods that fall into his personal diet (or simply in his tastes!). But he did not limit himself to food: he also ordered bulbsa eagle and even a kettle.
From language complex to passion for music
Rocco is not any parrot. Was Entrusted to an animal center in Berkshire, the National Animal Welfare Trustafter developing a Vocabulary too “complexion” with his previous owner. Its bad words They were so numerous as to make his stay in public inappropriate.
That’s where he met Marion WischNewskia volunteer who decided to take him home with him, looking for a new life and a new one more polite language. However, Marion did not expect that Rocco would develop such familiarity with the technology.
But it did not end there because Rocco does not just go shopping. When it is not busy with purchases, chat with Alexa for listen to music. Marion tells fun that often, upon returning home, she finds the vocal assistant who plays romantic songs or songs rockat the request of Rocco. His favorites? THE Kings of Leon.
However, it is no coincidence that Rocco is so forward. THE African gray parrots are in fact considered Among the most intelligent birdsso much so that the “Einstein of the Aviar world” is nicknamed. Rocco is a perfect example: he learns quickly, he enjoys and, like a true human, loves good food, music and shopping online. Only that, in his case, there is always Marion ready to Delete the shopping list before the courier arrives.
