Most kids hate having to do the dreaded homework every day after school. In fact, even if you ask adults what they didn’t like most about school, chances are many will say it’s homework they hated the most. That’s probably why this little boy in New Jersey, US, has managed to win people’s hearts by his way of completing his homework. A video posted on Twitter has gone all kinds of viral as it shows the little boy using Amazon’s digital assistant, Alexa, to solve his math problems.

“It was just any regular day of doing homework,” Yerelyn Cueva told New York Post. “I’m in the living room, and I overheard him asking Alexa some math problems, and I could not believe it! What you don’t see is after he says, ‘Thank you, Alexa, for helping me with my homework.’”
