Myself: Alexa, how many households are there in the UK?
Alexa: The United Kingdom has 27 million households.Isn't it mind-boggling that a smart speaker can answer a question like that? It is correct as well according to the Office for National Statistics.
The reason that I asked, was that in its first-quarter earnings report on Tuesday, Netflix revealed that in the first four weeks on the service, Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá’s UCP-produced comic book adaptation of Umbrella Academy was watched by 45 million households (a number which included mine).
I wanted to put 45 million households in context. One and two thirds times all the households in the UK certainly does that.
I am astounded.
