I'm sure genetics play a role here too.
I think it's just old people.
My folks bought into that Alexa shit, the things they ask it are amusing. For example, I bought a thing on eBay and had it sent there via USPS because I wasn't going to be around to collect at my house. It was due some Saturday I was there, so my father tries to ask Alexa if there was any mail. I go "How is Amazon going to know about an item bought on eBay by someone who doesn't live here and got shipped by USPS?" I don't think the absurdity got through.
