Following news that Alexa could erupt into spontaneous, creepy laughter, and amid concerns that Alexa-enabled Amazon Echo devices are recording private conversations, comes even more disturbing news.

According to Shawn Kinnear of San Francisco, Alexa is offering up unsolicited statements even more creepy than the unprovoked laughter of a few months ago. According to Kinnear, Alexa had offered the following unprovoked statement: "Every time I close my eyes all I see is people dying." Followed by what Kinnear described as the “most uncomfortable silence I have ever felt."

Despite requests that Alexa repeat what it had just uttered, Kinnear claims he was only met with confusion and thus could not record the outburst.

For now, this is the first report of its kind, but stay tuned!
