It’s the technical hurdles that have me skeptical that they could do it, at a cost that is profitable, without it being widely known how. Either it’s novel and not being done by anyone by CMG; or it’s not, in which case why is CMG marketing like they are the only ones doing it.
But it’s probably safer to assume that everyone is already listening in so that you are prepared because you know they would if they could.
Yeah, Amazon laying off a lot of folks in their Alexa division makes me skeptical this is real and is scalable.
Amazon failed with Alexa because they couldn't monetize it enough to make it profitable. If you're using it to spy and sell data, there's your profit.
