The revelation that Amazon would train its AI from real user conversations came during a Bloomberg TV interview.

Amazon says the new AlexaLLM is “the largest integration of a large language model” that provides real-time services on a suite of devices. It could be integrated with smart speakers like Alexa Echo or doorbells, such as Alexa Ring, which monitors visitors at doors and controls door locks.

Alexa is activated after it hears certain keywords, such as “Alexa,” “Echo” or “Computer.” With AlexaLLM, though, a new Visual ID function can be enabled, which allows users to activate Alexa not by using cue words but by simply facing their smart display devices. John Davisson, the director of litigation and senior counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said consumers should question Amazon’s interest in keeping and using voice data.

Davisson said, “That alone to me is a red flag for any privacy assurance they make about Alexa, and that would apply to children. So they should really be greeted with a lot of skepticism.”alleged
