Leaked Docs Reveal Flaws in Alexa's AI Reboot

Amazon's development of an AI-powered version of Alexa faces significant challenges, including latency issues and compatibility problems with older Echo devices, according to leaked internal memos. These issues could delay the release of the new Alexa, codenamed Banyan, until 2025. The memos also reveal concerns about customer satisfaction and the limited number of Skills available at launch. Amazon aims to enhance Alexa's capabilities to compete with other tech giants in the AI space, but internal documents suggest substantial work remains to meet these goals.
