I don’t mind cloud services as an automation overlay, but at that point you basically have an Alexa powered Harmony remote, which is unlikely to provide the level of telemetry that Bezos demands. This bed situation is great though. It’s a concrete demonstration for enthusiastic techies about why you shouldn’t connect objects to the web just because you can.
