How UP Teen's Prompt Act Saved A Toddler From Monkey Attack
Playing with her 15-month-old niece, Nikita suddenly observed the sudden entrance of monkeys in the kitchen when her family members were busy with guests in the house.
The sudden commotion by the toddler alerted Nikita, bringing her notice to the situation that could have been potentially dangerous but was averted through the teen's tech-savviness.
As a group of monkeys were creating havoc in the kitchen by throwing utensils around, it was easy to have panic set in, but Nikita maintained a calm composure and with an alert mind she spotted an unexpected saving grace - Alexa - on the refrigerator in the kitchen. Yes, the same Alexa we usually use for entertainment, mostly to play music was Nikita's weapon to save the day and a little kid.
The teenager used her appalling quick thinking and gave the voice command to the Echo Smart Speaker-Alexa saying, "Alexa Bark." Catching the command quickly, the voice assistant speaker sprang into loud dog voices scaring away the monkey without even harming it or anyone.
News of Nikita's quick thinking spread like wildfire, turning her into a local hero. Her family is understandably proud, with her sister expressing immense gratitude for Nikita's resourcefulness. "She could have panicked and screamed, but she stayed calm and used her presence of mind.
As the news took over social media, business tycoon Anand Mahindra even offered the job to the teenager after finishing her education as according to him the girl depicted "potential for leadership in an entirely unpredictable world." Mahindra wrote on his X (Formerly Twitter) handle "The dominant question of our era is whether we will become slaves or masters of technology." He added "The story of this young girl provides comfort that technology will always be an enabler of human ingenuity. Her quick thinking was extraordinary."
