The AI Technology Behind Alexa

Gain work exposure as a product specialist in a risk-free way at Amazon. This work exposure program helps you get immersed in simulated workplace scenarios to acquire and apply real-world knowledge of AI.

Case Study

The Background:

Amazon Alexa is a prime example of machine learning in action and is one of the most successful applications of consumer-based use of the new advances in artificial intelligence.

Systems like Alexa are an early sign of a massive shift in how we interact with machines.

The Challenge:

Communication is a constant exercise in deciphering the meaning. Sometimes we use the wrong words, and often the words we say are not actually the words we mean.

In a voice recognition system, the hard problem that's been vexing computer scientists for decades is understanding the context of what you say, that is, parsing the words.

The Solution:

With natural language understanding (NLU), systems can deduce what a speaker actually means and not just the words he says.

NLU is all about providing computers with the necessary context behind what you say, and the flexibility to understand the many variations in how you might say identical things.
