Re:Alexa had "no profit timeline," cost Amazon $25B in 4 years by ysacfanboi on Tuesday July 23, 2024 @11:03PM (#41053273)
Not any more. Majority of talent got fired. Whoever is hired now will be gone in a couple years (says the internal tracking software that tells you how "new" you are across all of Amazon). That kind of churn ensures no real progress can be made.

Just throw Alexa away already. It's a wrap.

The actually good people left long before anyone got fired.
