CES 2017 next breakthrough is here! They have made siri into a box and named it the amazon Alexa. Alexa is an intelligent personal assistant, It is capable of voice interaction, music playback, making to-do lists, setting alarms, streaming podcasts, playing audiobooks, and providing weather, traffic, and other real time information. Alexa can also control several smart devices using itself as a home automation hub. Early on, Alexa’s abilities were somewhat limited, if amusing: the ability to answer random trivia questions, for example. But once Alexa could control other devices such as Philips Hue bulbs and the Nest Thermostat, the virtual assistant became much more useful.

                 The reason why I picked this artical is because I like this new tech. The Alexa is much better than siri in my opinion. The reason why I like Alexa more than Siri is because the Alexa can do so much more stuff like, Alexa can you turn thelights off, and then turn them back on in seconds!. Another example would be if you said Alexa look up how to mke sushi it would tell you.
