I'm not sure I would have a lot of use for voice-controlled conversational AI, as odd as that may sound. Like most people, I use Alexa for _commands_: home automation, timers, tell me the weather, ask a specific question looking for a specific answer, play this music. That's not "conversational", and I don't want it to be. I use generative AI for other things, mostly writing code for me, or telling me about code problems in general. It's rare that I want output that I'm _not_ going to copy/paste somewhere. Alexa isn't a failure, it just didn't sell more stuff for Amazon. And, well, it costs an awful lot for them to keep running. So maybe it is.
