The best video doorbells are great for being able to screen your visitors; if someone rings the bell, you can see who's there without having to open your door. However, there's still the matter of interacting with them. But what if you don't want to deal with the hassle of a persistent solicitor?
Ring is introducing a new feature to some of its video doorbells called Alexa+ Greetings, which will use Amazon's AI to talk to the person who's at your door and give them appropriate instructions based on the conversation. It's a step beyond the current Smart Responses, which gives a one-time reply, to an ongoing dialogue.
