Amazon Brings Alexa+ to the Web as AI Competition Heats Up

Amazon has devices and services that span nearly every facet of a consumer’s life, from entertainment — Prime Video, Fire TV — to smart home — Ring, Echo — to retail — Amazon marketplace, Whole Foods — plus assets wrapped around the consumer tech ecosystem like advertising and AWS, explained Jennifer Kent, senior vice president and principal analyst at Parks Associates, a market research and consulting company specializing in consumer technology products, in Dallas.

“If Amazon wants Alexa+ to compete with ChatGPT, Gemini, and other LLMs, it needs to be broadly accessible to users, not just on Amazon-ecosystem devices,” she told TechNewsWorld.

“Google has an advantage being built directly into the web browser, and while that’s a tough competitive disadvantage to overcome, it’s imperative for Amazon to get Alexa+ onto the web as well,” she added.
