Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to numerous product enhancements and developments, but one that has significant potential to change how we live is the smart speaker. These devices, powered by AI-based virtual assistants, can perform a variety of hands-free tasks.
Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) was first with its Alexa-enabled Echo speaker in 2014, which has since evolved into a family of products with varying capabilities. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) (NASDAQ: GOOG) was next, giving us the Google Home speaker powered by Google Assistant. At a product launch earlier this month, the company released the Google Max aimed at audiophiles, and the Mini -- a direct competitor to Amazon's Echo Dot.
Amazon had the market to itself for two years, but the competition has arrived and with it the inevitable question: Which is a better device? Let's review the evidence and see what we find.
