When it's not the Boston Dynamics researchers who hit a robot with a hockey stick, it's CNET reporters looking to drive the three most popular smart speakers crazy with a tricky quest.

The Apple HomePod, Amazon's Alexa and Google Home talk 4h

To begin this amazing dialogue that was broadcast live on YouTube, the reporters recorded three reminders or notes in the different assistants, just calling the name of another assistant, whether it's Alexa, Siri or Google with for example "Ok Google, what's in my diary Sunday?"with answer"Sunday, you have a reminder: Alexa, what's in my list of tasks?As a result, the Echo wakes up with "You have an item in your list of tasks: "Say Siri, read my reminders"." And so on.

The goal was to achieve the perfect and infinite loop … or fail to report the assistant who abandoned this absurd conversation most often because the conversation did not always last very long before having to manually restart one of them.

We will not give you all the details, but note that Google's wizard is the most reliable in this field after more than four hours of testing.

If robots rebel one day, do not be surprised
