It is more than likely that all of you who follow technology closely have noticed that the platforms and uses of AI are beginning to surround us. A technological giant like Amazon could not be left behind, and Alexa may be the element that will benefit the most from all this.
We tell you all this because, as it is becoming known right now, the retail giant, Amazon, wants to take advantage of the growth of Artificial Intelligence. More specifically, it plans to take advantage of the potential of ChatGPT to integrate it into its famous voice assistant. How could it be otherwise, we refer to Alexa.
And it is that as technology is surpassed at the moment, we are seeing enormous growth in terms of AI platforms and tools. A good part of all this is found in the way of interacting through conversations with humans. It is precisely for all this that Amazon intends to maintain its advantage by taking advantage of AI technology to revolutionize the way users interact with its assistant Alexa.
This is a component that over the years has not stopped growing and spreading throughout homes and offices around the world. We are getting more and more used to using this type of digital assistant to perform a growing number of tasks. Of course, the way to interact with assistants like Alexa is becoming more advanced and functional. Hence the commitment that the e-commerce giant has made to improve the capabilities of its own assistant.
How Amazon plans to improve Alexa with AI
It must be taken into account that many of the current AI-based services are capable of generating new content based on user instructions. This opens up a wide range of possibilities for the aforementioned company when it comes to improving the functionalities of its product. For example, this would allow the assistant to have more natural and fluid conversations with users. In addition, and as expected, it will also provide us with more relevant and creative answers adapted to our needs.
In addition, all the technology related to Artificial Intelligence currently offers us the potential to allow Alexa to address complex questions. Among some of the useful modes of use that we could carry out, we highlight being able to share stories and anecdotes, compose song lyrics and much more. One of Amazon’s objectives in this regard is that we can talk with its digital assistant, as if we were doing it with a friend, obviously with certain limitations.
Thus, the firm foresees a near future in which Alexa will become a much more advanced personal assistant than it is today. Thanks to AI, the company wants you to understand and attend more deeply to the needs and preferences of each user. With all this, the tool could reach a point where it knows our interests, hobbies and daily routines. In this way, their answers would be better adjusted to the specific needs of each one.
