Amazon holds an event on February 26th, here’s what to expect
Amazon is Conduct an event on February 26th At 10 o’clock in the morning, this is unusual earlier this year for the company, which usually has its launches in the fall like the other peers. However, given the last time Amazon had "devices and services" showcase was In September 2023This one is overdue. (Yes, there was a startup of Kindle Last OctoberBut that doesn’t really count.) Although we don’t know exactly what the company plans to show, we certainly have some educated assumptions. Let’s get into it.
First, the company’s hardware head, Panos Panay and his devices and services team will be available. This shows the presence of new gadgets at the event. However, the main focus is likely to be more information about A long promised next generation AlexaS
The invitations are out! It seems that the more intelligent and “remarkable” version of Alexa on Alexon has finally started on February 26th. I can’t wait to try it. @Aalexadevs @Alexagames @Alexa99https://t.co/oqhwgjtysx#Amazingalexa #Remarkablelexa #Smartelexa #Newalex # Akalaunchfeb26th pic.twitter.com/eqwv3re8my

How do we understand this? Amazon sent five versions of an invitation from bare bones to the event. Internet sodiums arranged the images together and, here, the background writes the word – Alexa.
AI refresh was confronted with a few delays after it was first announced in 2023. We announced that the team had problems receiving the updated chatbot to do basic thingssuch as creating a timer and switched on smart lights. These types of tasks have been the bread and butter of the current Alexa chatbot for years. Development team has also been reported There were problems with hallucinationsS
The company claims that the new LLM, powered by LLM, Alex will be able to “process a shade and ambiguity-as it would make a man-and intelligently take action." Amazon says he will be able to execute complex requests, such as “Alexa, every week at night at 9:00 pm, to make a message that it is going to bed for the children, darkens the lights above, turn on the light of the porch and turn on the fan in the bedroom. “That sounds useful if it works.
This brand new Alexa is likely to take advantage of some special hardware, thus including Panay and his team. It’s been a long time since we have received updates on the Echo smart speakers, so some kind of refreshing some kind is more than likely. It is possible and Budget and useful Echo Buds Earbuds will receive a superstructure.
What should we not expect? Well, Amazon just introduced some new Kindles At the end of last year. It would be strange to see an electronic reader of this event. In addition, while the company may be able to introduce new fireplace tablets and the like, this is not really not a gel with the whole topic of Alex.
