Amazon's new Alexa was set to launch in late 2024 but has now been pushed back due to issues with its language models. The assistant struggles with basic tasks.
The new Alexa was supposed to utilize Anthropic's Claude AI and come with a subscription fee, but testing revealed significant issues with its sophistication and reliability.
After significant testing, including sports questions from CEO Andy Jassy, Alexa's performance was disappointing, indicating that it has not yet advanced enough to compete with similar AI.
Despite a pivot in October to promote Kindle devices, Amazon's Alexa needs more time to address its developmental problems before a public launch.
