Alexa loses her voice
Amazon's digital voice assistant can no longer speak in this year's Super Bowl commercial. As a result, people can no longer get their way and are ruthlessly at the mercy of others.
What a terrible scenario: Suddenly, real people are filling in for the digital voice assistant Alexa. They deny their clients wishes and evaluate their knowledge gaps. They play R'n'B instead of country music, get prompts completely wrong, and don't connect you with the person you want to talk to. It's terrible to imagine a world without artificial intelligence! I wonder how people did it in the past...

But life isn't quite that simple, even with artificial intelligence. Before Amazon aired the 90-second spot for Alexa at the Super Bowl, the ecommerce retailer had to overcome technical pitfalls. In fact, Amazon had to tinker for a long time, as it says in a Blog post until a technology was found that would prevent the "real" Alexas of TV viewers at home from responding to the voices of commercials. After all, in the past, digital voice assistants had already felt addressed by commercials that said their name and placed mass orders, for example. (ank)
