V oice Assistants (V As) such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant rely on wake-word detection to respond to people's commands, which could potentially be vulnerable to audio adversarial examples. In this work, we target our attack on the wake-word detection system, jamming the model with some inconspicuous background music to deactivate the V As while our audio adversary is present. We implemented an emulated wake-word detection system of Amazon Alexa based on recent publications.
