A recent report indicating that Amazon's Alexa division is on track to lose $10 billion US this year is raising questions about the future of the entire voice-assistant industry.

A 2021 report found almost 50 per cent of U.S. internet users owned at least 1 smart speaker.

CBC is doomed and all because of their bias. No one except maybe a few Liberals watches or listens to the garbage they put out.

Tried it. Hated it. 24 hour surveillance is not a good thing. Good riddance.

Maybe elonmusk management strategies can help save Alexa

Why is it Alexa and not Alex?

Not surprising. Nobody trusts them to be secure.

It’s creepy as fuck and utterly useless to anyone beyond the data collectors behind it all. Next let’s talk about doorbell cams and that anyone who has one is a cop.

'Alexa, turn off CBC permanently....'

denisesc21 Alexa you’re expensive

Who wouldn’t want a device tracking their every move

😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

Never been the least bit interested in this technology

Glad to see that surveillance capitalism is failing.

Who the hell would want “Amazon” hearing every word you say in your house? Bad enough on the phones! How f’n lazy can you be? I’d love a deep dive into their algorithm and see exactly what that app is using on a cell phone, let alone an Alexa in a home!!!

“Alexa, please find me a tax write-off.”

Awesome I hate those things... Not for any good reason they are just lame

Is this report coming from the same company that pays zero tax? I wouldn't trust their numbers.

Is Alexa still a thing?

Just charge 8 dollars a month. Or will that send people running to their safe spaces?

Who the heck would want the invasive thing in their house? Bad enough the phones listen to us 🤷‍♀️

The surveillance industry.
