Amazon Updates Alexa To LLM-Powered Alexa Plus
|
8.1
Amazon is automatically upgrading some Prime members' Echo devices to Alexa Plus starting in early January 2026, sending in-app notices that the update cannot be opted out of but can be reverted by saying 'Alexa, exit Alexa+'. Alexa Plus is an LLM-powered overhaul intended to compete with Google Gemini; users report slower responses, disliked voice changes, and an influx of ads after downgrading.
Scoring Rationale
Widespread LLM-powered Alexa rollout raises industry impact, but shallow technical details and user complaints limit long-term significance.
