We have a leak of information from Amazon.

Looks like Alexa team is working on a new wearable product which can understand human emotions. Amazon doesn't provide any comments but you can find more information in the Bloomberg article.

Facebook is working to develop voice and AI assistant technologies that may work across their family of AR/VR products including Portal, Oculus and future products.

That means Facebook may not position the product as a competitor to Alexa or similar platforms, but as more of a feature exclusive to its growing family of hardware devices.

Amazon Echo Show + YouTube =❤️

If you are a fan of Alexa, you may know that Google blocked youtube and the only choice to watch it was to use internal browser. But everything has changed recently. Amazon and Google ended the boycott of each others' video services and now Youtube is available on Alexa and Fire TV as well as Amazon Prime Video is available on Google’s Chromecast and Android TV.

Google made a nice strike in light of Amazon’s plans?

Just a few days ago we posted news from Bloomberg that Amazon would soon launch a free streaming service and Spotify competitor to better cater to its Echo device owners.

And just a few hours before Amazon officially launched it, Google had announced that YouTube Music is available for free (with ads) across all Google home devices.

But it's not the end:) In a few hours will post another news about Amazon and Google which many of us have been waiting for a while.

“Alexa, is someone else listening to us?”
- Of course, because more than 5 000 people work to make me better.
