If you've been wondering when voice assistants would get the generative AI treatment,ポルノ映画 お嬢さんの股ぐら Amazon has your answer.
On Wednesday, the retail giant previewed an evolved version of Alexa, powered by generative AI. Soon, Amazon's voice assistant technology will be powered by a proprietary large language model (LLM) that's "custom-built and specifically optimized for voice interactions, and the things we know our customers love—getting real-time information, efficient smart home control, and maximizing their home entertainment," said the announcement.

Integrating LLMs with voice assistants seemed like a perfect use case. But the process is more complicated than deploying new code or updating the software, since voice assistants use less dynamic methods of AI. With current voice assistants, machine learning and natural language processing are applied to a finite database of words and phrases. Alternatively, LLMs are able to generate new information and build on top of their knowledge to become smarter over time. So essentially, Alexa has the same name but entirely new inner workings.
