. Amazon, the leading e-commerce company, recently reported their quarterly earnings. CEO Andy Jassy announced that Alexa will become the world's best personal assistant by developing more advanced large language models (LLMs). Furthermore, Amazon is looking to add ChatGPT-like technology to Alexa for making it more conversational and proactive. The LLM model (Alexa Teacher Model) is said to be more generalised and robust. This system is meant to provide media recommendations, news stories, and storytelling with independent intelligence. Google, Microsoft, and Open AI are also working on language models, thus, Amazon plans to differentiate its system with better use of Alexa information. Jassy's involvement in the project will likely erease its success.
