Devices Event held at its Seattle headquarters, including countless new
features
for Alexa and more than a dozen new hardware devices spanning from
Alexa-enabled
wearables to a smart convection oven.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Here’s a
breakdown
of everything that happened:</font></font></p>
<h3 style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0in; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0in"><font face="Calibri"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 13.5pt">Tons of New Alexa Features and
Capabilities</font></font></h3>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Amazon’s
primary
concern when discussing Alexa was to eliminate privacy concerns and this
included various reminders about steps the company has already taken along
with
some new features and options:</font></font></p>
<ul style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;
mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1"><font face="Calibri"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Alexa will soon receive a “home
mode” that users can set when they are home to disable the recording of
audio
or video. </font></font>
</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;
mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1"><font face="Calibri"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">If Alexa does something weird,
later this year you’ll be able to ask the assistant to explain itself.
“Alexa,
why did you do that?” </font></font>
</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;
mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1"><font face="Calibri"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Similarly, the assistant will
support the utterance: “Alexa, tell me what you heard.” </font></font>
</li><li class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;
mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1"><font face="Calibri"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Amazon announced a new opt-in
that
will enable users to have their voice recordings automatically deleted
after
certain lengths of time.</font></font></li></ul>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">The company
has
also attempted to make Alexa sound more human, aiming for more of a natural
cadence instead of the robotic voice currently used. This update launches
today,
while future changes will bring more “emotive and expressive” capabilities
such
as a newscaster voice when reading the news. At least one use case for this
improved “conversational” tone is that Alexa can be integrated into hardware
such as Ring doorbells, and it will essentially be able to answer your door
for
you.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">For bi-lingual
households, Alexa is gaining support for understanding multiple languages at
the
same time courtesy of a multi-lingual mode that includes Spanish and
English,
Canadian French and English, as well as Indian Hindi and English. Amazon
discussed a new monetization scheme coming later this year that will allow
users
to purchase celebrity voices for $0.99 each. For instance, Alexa can mimic
the
voice of Samuel L. Jackson—swear words and all .</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">The voice
assistant is also being outfitted with frustration detection so it can
detect
when you’re becoming frustrated with the device. Likewise, Amazon has put
more
thought into a providing a frustration-free experience. It has announced a
“Certified for Humans” program that guarantees certain products are
struggle-free, tinker-free and stress-free to set up and use. The company
has
established a “non-expert” panel to test gadgets such as smart lights and
small
appliances.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“Alexa
Guard”—the
feature that listens for broken glass—is being improved in a couple of ways.
First, it’s being added to Routines. So for instance when you say “Alexa, I’m
off to work,” the assistant will lock your door, turn on your outside lights
and
so on. Second, it’s capable of detecting human activity. Alexa will listen
for
sounds such as footsteps, talking etc. and then send you a text
alert.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">In a similar
vein,
two new types of “Alexa Hunches” have been announced. Alexa will have
Hunches
about Routines that you may want to enable based on your daily habits. If
you
perform a specific action regularly, Alexa will ask if you’d like to create
a
Routine. Additionally, the assistant will have Hunches about when things
need to
be replaced such as batteries for your smart locks or ink for your
printer.</font></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><img id="Picture_x0020_11" style="HEIGHT: 0.687in; WIDTH: 0.687in" border="0" alt="Alexa GM" src="cid:(null)" width="66" height="66"><font face="Calibri"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Amazon
</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Amazon
announced
that Alexa will be available on millions of GM vehicles, including Buick,
Chevy,
Cadillac and GMC—and not just new models, but many existing vehicles will
receive Alexa with an over-the-air update. Amazon’s voice assistant
integrates
with GM’s own voice experience. Likewise, the company announced version 2.0
of
the Alexa Smart Screen Device SDK for hardware
manufacturers.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Echo Show
users
who rely on their device in the kitchen may be happy to learn that they will
soon be able to watch Food Network TV shows on the Echo. When they see an
appetizing recipe, they can simply ask Alexa to save it. Amazon also
announced
that subscribers will be able to watch live and on-demand cooking classes
from
Food Network chefs such as Alton Brown, and Alexa will be able to help with
questions about ingredients. Apparently the service has 80,000
recipes.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">The Echo Show
is
also receiving new video call features that support group video or audio
chats.
So for instance you can perform a video call with several family members,
with
everyone onscreen in a tiled mosaic.</font></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"><font style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Other new
Alexa
features include:</font></font></p>

Available with or
without
prescription lenses, the device weighs 31 grams and they don’t have a
display or
camera but they do have an integrated microphone and directional speakers
that
point the audio at you and not the people around you. The mic can be
disabled
and there’s a “VIP filter” so only certain notifications are permitted.
Introductory pre-order pricing is set at $179.99.</font></font></p>
