You may need to wait a little longer for the Alexa AI update.

Amazon is preparing to unveil improvements in Alexa's artificial intelligence at an event scheduled for February 26. However, it has been revealed that the new update may not be available until at least a month later, specifically on March 31, according to an anonymous employee of the company. Reports indicate that Amazon initially planned to launch this revamped version of its smart assistant this month, but decided to postpone it to correct a number of "incorrect responses" that surfaced during testing.

This delay has generated uncertainty among investors, as developing artificial intelligence technology requires significant investment, and making profits in this area can be complex. Despite these challenges, the company believes that an enhanced version of Alexa will boost sales of Echo devices and other smart gadgets that use the assistant. The strategy is to keep most of Alexa's features available for free, while advanced features would be exclusive to subscribers.

This more powerful version of Alexa is expected to be capable of developing a personality and remembering past conversations. Additionally, it could perform complex tasks such as ordering food delivery or calling a taxi, making users' daily lives easier. However, similar issues have been faced by other companies in the field of artificial intelligence. For example, Apple has also faced criticism due to misunderstandings in its notification summary feature.

The shift towards a more advanced version of Alexa is promising for the smart home sector, although these delays indicate that there is still a long way to go for effective implementation of this technology.
