Amazon's AI assistant comes to the web with Alexa.com | TechCrunch
"Amazon's AI-powered overhaul of its digital assistant, now known as Alexa+, is coming to the web. On Monday, at the start of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the company announced the official launch of a new website, Alexa.com, which is now rolling out to all Alexa+ Early Access customers. The site will allow customers to use Alexa+ online, much as you can do today with other AI chatbots such as ChatGPT or Google's Gemini."
"On the Alexa.com website, customers can use Alexa+ for common tasks, for instance exploring complex topics, creating content, and making trip itineraries. However, Amazon aims to differentiate its assistant from others by focusing on families and their needs in the home. That includes controlling smart devices, as you already could with the original Alexa, but it also means doing things like updating the family's calendar or to-do list, making dinner reservations, adding grocery items you need to your Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods cart,"
Amazon launched Alexa.com to bring Alexa+ to the web, rolling out access to Alexa+ Early Access customers. The website enables web-based interaction with Alexa+ similar to other AI chatbots, including exploring complex topics, creating content, and planning travel itineraries. Amazon updated the Alexa mobile app to an agent-forward, chat-focused homepage. Alexa+ aims to be available beyond Echo devices and smartphones to reach users without in-home devices. The assistant retains smart-home controls and adds family-focused features such as updating shared calendars and to-do lists, making reservations, adding groceries to Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods carts, and planning family entertainment.
