When Amazon launches an AI-supercharged version of Alexa, it will charge people an extra monthly fee to use it outside of Amazon Prime, according to CNBC.
It’s no secret that Amazon is busy overhauling Alexa with generative AI, but a new report from CNBC reveals that the company plans to make people pay extra for it. When Amazon launches its “more conversational” version of Alexa to the public later this year, the company will reportedly make users pay for a subscription separate from its $139 membership to Prime. This isn’t the first we’ve heard of Amazon charging a subscription for Alexa.
You can enable it by telling your Echo device, “Alexa, let’s chat,” and Amazon will notify you when you can access the preview. During the company’s device showcase last September, Amazon showed off the updated Alexa powered by a large language model . The change gives Alexa a better understanding of conversational phrases and allows it to carry out multiple requests from one command.
