Hey Siri: Guacamole

Si habéis leído la entrada sobre el COVID-19, habrás visto que compramos dos homepods justo al principio del confinamiento. Servían para ayudaros a pasar el tiempo, escuchar música, controlar vuestras luces, etc. Estos bichos futuristas funcionan con órdenes vocales (“Hey Siri…”), así que se pueden programar distintas acciones con frases específicas.
