Amazon has launched Alexa Plus, an AI-enhanced version of their voice assistant, but its initial rollout reveals significant feature limitations. Currently, it cannot help with grocery orders, gift brainstorming, or certain context-aware tasks like ordering takeout. Offered initially to a select group of users on specific Echo devices, the assistant can perform tasks like ordering an Uber and summarizing documents. However, Amazon acknowledges further developments are required before a wider public release. Alexa Plus is priced at $19.99 per month, or can be accessed for free through Prime.
Amazon's upgraded AI assistant, Alexa Plus, lacks key functionalities like brainstorming gift ideas and grocery ordering at its initial launch, as admitted by spokesperson Kristy Schmidt.
Despite being marketed as an advanced AI assistant, early access users find that Alexa Plus has several missing features and may not fully meet Amazon's public release standards.
