What is the best product Amazon released this week?

Amazon releases galore. Alexa what are you most excited for?

This week Amazon announced all kinds of products including products that put Alexa in your ears, on your eyes, you can have rings, and all sorts of other products. So, all over the place. What am I most excited for? I like the competition in headphones, so I suppose, Alexa in your ears. I feel like headphones have been improving quite a bit, kind of quietly. So that's good.

Will people really walk around and talk to Alexa all day?

Of course they will. They talk to their phones. Fundamentally the problem for Amazon is they don't have a phone. And so they're trying to get gadgets on the rest of your body. We walk around all day talking to our phones so we might talk to these gadgets.

Should I be concerned Amazon has ears everywhere?

Of course you should be concerned. Even if Amazon was a company that had always prioritized privacy, and it was really baked into the Amazon DNA, you should be worried. And that's not the case. Amazon has never been that strong on privacy. So yes, worry. But if you love the products use them.
