Alexa is getting a major glow-up! Amazon’s voice assistant is set to debut new AI-powered features in the US, partnering with big names like Uber, Instacart, and Grubhub, according to a new report.
What does that mean for you? Alexa might soon handle your ride-hailing, grocery shopping, food orders, and even restaurant reservations. Imagine saying, “Alexa, book me a ride,” and boom, Uber’s on it. Other partners include Ticketmaster for events, OpenTable for dining, and Thumbtack for home services.
Amazon’s big goal? Partner with 200 companies within three years and offer a subscription plan for this upgraded assistant. Internally nicknamed “Remarkable Alexa,” the update uses AI tech similar to ChatGPT to make Alexa smarter and more proactive.
Amazon is betting big on this to revive Alexa’s popularity. The stakes are high, with employees reportedly saying Alexa’s future depends on the success of these AI upgrades.
What do you think—game changer or just another update?
