Amazon is upgrading Alexa Plus with new features, but you’ll have to wait
The upgraded Alexa Plus with enhanced reasoning will get a dedicated hub on Fire TV devices.
Amazon is set to enhance its Alexa Plus voice assistant with a range of new features. However, the rollout will take some time. This upgrade is primarily aimed at Fire TV devices, with an additional hub to be introduced for the AI-powered assistant. Beyond this, Alexa Plus is also being integrated into the Fire TV mobile app, allowing users to ask questions about movies and TV shows even when they're not using the television.
Amazon has been rolling out the Alexa Plus AI assistant since last year, but its availability was previously limited. The e-commerce giant has since made it free for all Fire TV users in the United States. The upcoming refresh of the Fire TV Stick lineup and these upgrading of Alexa Plus come as part of Amazon's larger strategy to bolster its AI offerings.
One of the key highlights of the new Alexa Plus is the introduction of a dedicated hub on Fire TV devices, alongside broader improvements to its reasoning capabilities. These upgrades are expected to start rolling out in November, with further enhancements arriving next year.
