What is Alexa?
Alexa is an AI assistant developed by Amazon, first included in the Amazon Echo and Echo dot devices developed by Amazon Lab126. It is not a stand-alone device, but is included in some kind of device. It can provide voice interaction, play music, create appointment lists, set alarms, stream podcasts, play audiobooks and provide weather, traffic and real-time information.
Others use Alexa itself as a home automation hub to control multiple smart devices. This is a breakthrough that allows users to obtain a variety of information by voice simply by talking to it. Not only information, but also products can be purchased in conjunction with Amazon.
