Welcome to Source Notes, a new Future Tense column in which Stephen Harrison explores Wikipedia, digital knowledge, and the search for a fact-based world. When I'm getting ready in the mornings, I often ask my Amazon Echo for the weather forecast or a flash news briefing. Lately, though, I've been experimenting with something else: "Computer, give me a quote." The Daily Quotes skill for Echo and other Alexa devices promises "quotes from celebrities and prominent figures to bring you a daily dose of fun and motivation." Rather than offering specific advice, the quotes usually speak to general inspirational themes like dreaming big and the value of persistence. After reciting the quote, Alexa will ask if you'd like to keep going.
