    4. Amazon plans to utilize Anthropic’s AI to upgrade and improve its voice assistant Alexa ahead of the upcoming holiday season. This decision stems from the need to address performance issues in the previous version of Alexa.

    Amazon's Partnership with Anthropic

    Amazon invested $4 billion in the startup Anthropic to acquire a stake in the company. This partnership has allowed Amazon to use the AI chatbot Claude to upgrade Alexa. The new version will cost between $5 and $10 per month, while the classic voice assistant will remain free.

    Amazon uses many different technologies to power Alexa. When it comes to machine learning models, we start with those built by Amazon, but we have used and will continue to use, a variety of different models including Titan and those from partners.Amazon spokesperson

    Challenges and Prospects of Alexa

    Amazon faced difficulties with the previous version of Alexa, which failed to become profitable and did not meet its goals of boosting sales. Despite this, the company continues to develop the product and has set a deadline for 2024 to showcase significant results.

    Competition and the Future of Alexa

    Alexa faces stiff competition from voice assistants of other tech giants, such as Google Gemini, OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and Apple’s Siri. Nonetheless, the updated version of Alexa powered by Claude shows better performance compared to previous models and can perform more complex tasks, such as ordering food and drafting emails.

    Introducing the updated version of Alexa based on Anthropic’s AI could significantly enhance the competitiveness and functionality of Amazon’s voice assistant. The new version is expected to allow the company to remain on par with other leading tech firms in this field.
