New Delhi: Entrepreneur Anand Mahindra offered a job to a girl from Uttar Pradesh after she heroically saved herself and her younger sister from a monkey attack using Amazon's virtual voice, Alexa, IANS reported.

The 13-year-old girl showed amazing presence of mind and scared away a monkey in the Basti district of Uttar Pradesh. The girl reportedly commanded Alexa to bark like a dog so that the monkey would flee. The monkey had entered her sister's home, and the girl performed the tactic which worked.

Anand Mahindra took his reaction to the news to X, saying, "The dominant question of our era is whether we will become slaves or masters of technology. The story of this young girl provides comfort that technology will always be an enabler of human ingenuity. Her quick thinking was extraordinary."

He said that the girl showed potential for leadership in an entirely unpredictable world.

"After she finishes her education, If she ever decides to work in the corporate world I hope we at @MahindraRise will be able to convince her to join us!!" the chairman added.

Last month, Anand Mahindra gifted chess prodigy Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa the new Mahindra XUV 400 electric SUV.
