Amazon’s ‘smarter’ Alexa may have a ‘new’ launch deadline
Amazon has reportedly postponed the launch date of its ‘smarter’ Alexa once again. Previously tipped to launch this year, a report by Bloomberg has said that the e-commerce giant has pushed the debut of its revamped voice assistant as it is unable to solve simple tasks like controlling the smart light.
Citing sources, Bloomberg reports that “Alexa AI teams were recently told that their target deadline had been moved into 2025.” It claims that the new Alexa – touted to be smarter, more capable AI-powered voice assistant – was supposed to launch at the October 17 event but the plans were cancelled, according to internal documents.
