Amazon will show off a better Alexa Anthropic’s Claude AI Model runs it

A new version of Amazon’s virtual helper Alexa will use Anthropic’s Claude AI model to power it. The goal of this new version, which will cost money every month, is to have more advanced features than the present free version. The update is part of Amazon’s larger plan to keep up with AI progress and make Alexa work better.

The article says that Anthropic’s Claude AI model will make a big improvement to Amazon’s Alexa virtual helper. This update, which should be out in October, will change a lot about how Alexa works. Instead of using Amazon’s own AI models, it will use the more advanced features of Claude AI.

New “Remarkable Alexa” from Amazon will be a paid service that costs between $5 and $10 a month to subscribe to. Amazon will still give away the old version of Alexa for free, even though it costs more.

Amazon had planned to improve Alexa using its own AI technology, but performance problems slowed her down and made her answers less steady. These problems led the business to team up with Anthropic, whose AI model showed it could handle more complicated questions and give quick answers better than any other.

We’re going to make the new Alexa able to have more dynamic conversations, building on past experiences to give more personalized and useful answers. With this new feature, Alexa should be able to do more complicated jobs, like shopping suggestions, news gathering, and writing emails, all with just one command from the user.

Amazon’s choice to add Anthropic’s Claude AI model to Alexa is part of a larger plan to stay competitive in the AI field, which is changing very quickly. The business has already put $4 billion into Anthropic, which gave it a small share in the startup and early access to its technology.

Amazon is presenting the new version of Alexa as a key part of its plan to make Alexa a more powerful and necessary tool in users’ daily lives as it gets ready to launch. The company hopes that the extra features in Remarkable Alexa will make both new and old users want to pay for the paid service, which could bring in a lot of new money.

People think of the change as a big step forward, but it also comes with some problems. Before the full rollout, Amazon will have to make sure that the technology meets its own internal standards. Regulators will also be watching closely because they are worried about how its investment in Anthropic will affect its ability to compete.

It’s not clear how users will react to the new subscription-based model or if Amazon will be able to meet its lofty platform goals as it continues to make Alexa better and add more features to it.
