Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #925
Hey there, Teri here and I’ve got a news story for you that I think is really interesting.
Unfortunately, this is only available in the United States, and in fact, it’s only available in Los Angeles as far as I know.
But I thought it’s a really interesting story because it gives us a little bit of insight into what Amazon and specifically what Alexa is going to be doing for us in the future.
So here’s the story, Amazon recently just launched a new grocery store called The Fresh Grocery store with smart shopping carts and Alexa guides.
So this is really interesting because now, you can go shopping in this grocery store and you can speak with Alexa.
This is now making Alexa our shopping assistants
There are different stations spaced out around the store where you can speak to Alexa and basically Alexa is now the person that you asked of when you have questions about where can I find the hot sauce, you know, what aisle is this product in?
And this is now making Alexa our shopping assistants, so this is very, very interesting.
So anyway, like I said, unfortunately, this is not in Canada yet, but it does give us a clear direction of where things are going.
And remember Whole Foods, which is in Canada is now owned by Amazon and has been owned by Amazon for a couple of years now, so you got to think that this is all part of their plan.
So anyway, interesting story thought you might be interested to hear that and I will talk to you again tomorrow, have a great day.
