We had a Google speaker thing. Got rid of it because it was crap. All we could reliably use it for was asking it to play a radio station or play Spotify, but frankly it even got that wrong enough that grabbing my phone and connecting to the Bluetooth speaker was easier.
Even privacy invading problems aside they’re just a little bit rubbish.
I have found that their killer app is natural language alarm-setting. something like, “google, set a timer for 30 minutes”, and having that timer appear on your phone is handy in the kitchen.

They’re awful if you have a weird accent like I do. Suppose there’s worse problems to have, at least I’ll never have any use for a smart speaker.

I got one for free years ago and it sits on a shelf unplugged lol.
