Amazon is working to give Alexa a generative AI makeover using its own internal large language models, according to leaked documents. The upgraded voice assistant aims to move beyond simple database queries to spin up personalized bedtime stories from toys in view and track down TV shows from vague descriptions. Why it matters: After heavy hardware layoffs, Amazon is betting that conversational AI can finally make Alexa proactive and profitable.
