A humorous incident involving Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa has gone viral, leaving the internet in splits. In a video widely shared on social media, an elderly man asked Alexa a question about pizza, but the device unexpectedly responded by asking him, "Wanna shoppa unda'wear?" The unrelated and rather flirty reply sparked amusement online.

A 83-year-old man named Kenny was using Alexa to ask the device about food choices, when it resulted into an unexpected and funny conversation. He was speaking to Alexa for the very first time and he simply asked, "Alexa! Are you there? How about sausage and pepperoni pizzas? Are they good for you or not?".

Notably, the video was originally recorded and shared online when Kenny was 80. The clip has recently resurfaced on the internet to kindle laughter again.

In the video, Kenny was seen asking Alexa about pizzas. When he questioned whether sausage and pepperoni pizzas was good or not, the device stayed quiet and made he repeated it louder. "Sausage and pepperoni pizzas", the elderly man said leaning closer to it.

Alexa replied to the prompt with an unexpected twist. She created a shopping list and added "underwear" to it, leaving the man stunned and laughing. He read the shopping list displayed on the screen and said astonishedly, "I don't wanna shoppa a unda'wear! I didn't say that".

Internet reacts

This quick conversation between Kenny and Alexa left people in chuckles for obvious reasons.

The video has gained significant traction, with users sharing their own funny experiences with Alexa. Instagram users agreed on how AI assistants sometimes misinterpret commands or questions, leading to such comical exchanges. Meanwhile, netizens called the grandpa "cute" and said they wanted to make him their friend.
