Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #1278
Alright, Teri here, and I’ve got two more announcements from the Alexa Live event a couple of weeks ago. Today and tomorrow we’ll cover those. The first one today is about the Voice Interoperability Initiative.
So the VII program, if you’re not familiar with that, that is a program that is committed to providing users, us, with the choice and flexibility on assistance that they interact with, to choose what you want to be interacting with in terms of which assistant.
So it’s… it’s very interesting because there are over 90 different members now that are working towards this vision.
It’s going to mean that there are more options on devices for which assistant you want to speak with
And some of these members of the initiative include, of course, Amazon, but also Facebook, Intel, Sonos, Garmin, and other sorts of major brands. So, this is very interesting.
It’s going to mean that there are more options on devices for which assistant you want to speak with. And, that’s good for everybody as far as I’m concerned. So, there you go.
They’re continuing to expand that, and I think that’s great. Oh, back… I will be back tomorrow with one last announcement from the Alexa Live event. And, boy, there’s been a lot.
So hope you’ll tune in for that one. And then we’ll speak again on the weekend with some more fun commands that have to do with summer and tennis.
