One Paterson six-year-old thought to use all his resources when doing homework. His helper? Alexa.

Yerelyn Cueva, 24, caught her son Jariel using Amazon's smart speaker to try and answer a math problem, according to the New York Post. The popular item had only been in their house a week before Jariel thought to use it for some extra help.

"It was just any regular day of doing homework," Cueva told The 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.'"

Cueva said that math is Jariel's favorite subject, so she was surprised that he used Alexa to get an answer he should have known. She suspected he was just being a bit lazy.

'I'm probably going to have to turn it off so he doesn’t just keep on cheating," she said.
