OK, this one is a given when you consider that this rumored microwave is powered by Alexa, Amazon's voice-activated, internet-connected digital assistant. But the inclusion of Alexa in a microwave is about more than yelling at your microwave to reheat your leftovers: Your microwave could become the command center of your smart home. You could ask the microwave to do tasks that other Alexa-powered devices can do, such as give you the weather, control other smart home devices or play music, among a host of other commands. Smart home devices that moonlight as fully operational Alexa devices are growing in popularity. You can find Alexa in smoke and CO detectors, light switches and thermostats, so a microwave with built-in Alexa doesn't seem too far-fetched. 

This GE Appliances microwave works with Alexa and has scan-to-cook technology.
