You probably know Alexa as the voice that sets timers, dims the lights and plays music, but after testing Alexa+ for a few weeks, I’m discovering new features nearly every day.
Recently, I discovered that upgraded Alexa has a creative side and can now generate realistic images on the fly. In my testing, I was impressed by the speed and ease of generating the images, that I couldn’t help but do a side-by-side image generation comparison with ChatGPT.
Whether you ask for a watercolor of a cozy cabin, a photorealistic puppy or a design mockup, Alexa+ responds in seconds, then texts the image directly to your phone. It’s surprisingly intuitive, shockingly fast and potentially a game-changer for everyday users.
Here’s what happened when I tested Alexa+ versus ChatGPT and the images each bot generated.
