This article aims to discuss the relationships built from the modulations between humans and machines, based on the idea that they are mutually affected, gradually changing materialities and subjectivities. With more intensity from the modern era, the human imagination conceived the creation and peaceful and subservient coexistence with automatons, androids and robots substitutes that could carry out the activities performed by the brain or body, as an intelligent double that would extend human consciousness. From talking dolls to personal assistants, the devices manifest themselves in different ways, presenting new experiences of interaction. This investigation explored the perceptions of using the Alexa personal assistant from the collection of personal reports from respondents who did not have the presence of digital technologies in their childhood.
