‘Elvia’ is Alexa with a Face, Powered by @EZ_Robot Software

Not entirely convincing, but entirely freaky: it’s a robotic head modified to articulate words spoken by Alexa. When I first saw the thumbnail I thought it was rendered because it just looked *too* weird but indeed it’s a physical head with servos, capable of multiple movements and expressions:
