Amazon's 'Alexa' updated to be kid-friendly

Amazon has updated 'Alexa' with a feature to make it more kid-friendly.

(WTHR) — Amazon has updated 'Alexa' with a feature to make it more kid-friendly.

It's called 'Freetime' and when the feature is running, 'Alexa' will answer questions a bit differently that cater more to children.

For example, if a kid asks about certain drugs, 'Alexa' will not answer the question. But for some other topics, the voice assistant will tell kids to talk to their parents.

Amazon says it worked with child psychologists to come up with kid-friendly answers.
