This week on the GeekWire Podcast, the competition between Amazon and Microsoft to lead the next wave of consumer AI is heating up. Amazon is enhancing Alexa to become a more advanced AI home chatbot, complete with a new web portal and updated Alexa app. Meanwhile, Microsoft is targeting retailers with its Copilot Checkout feature. Both tech giants are pushing the boundaries of AI innovation in different ways.

Furthermore, Google is set to introduce an “AI Inbox” for Gmail, promising to revolutionize email management by acting as an executive assistant. Our team also shares insights from a smart bird feeder experiment that led to amusing results, along with our experience with AI automation on Windows PCs using Vy from Vercept, a Seattle-based startup.

As a Netflix recommendation, we suggest watching “Cover-Up,” a documentary on investigative journalist Seymour Hersh. This leads us to ponder what insights could be uncovered if his notes were digitized and analyzed using AI technology.

In a somber note, we reflect on the closure of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, a significant loss in the American newspaper industry. Additionally, we fondly recall the time GeekWire was featured on its editorial page.
