Voice assistant Alexa is expected to get a major artificial intelligence upgrade from Amazon tomorrow, and it could change how we interact with this popular piece of smart home tech. Amazon is hosting an event in New York City on Feb. 26, and Amazon's Devices and Services team lead Panos Panay will be speaking there.

Amazon always has new hardware to show off at its device events, and while I don’t expect a firehose of new products—after all, Amazon has recently debuted new Kindles and Fire TV models as well the humongous Echo Show 21 and a second-generation Echo Show 15. Nonetheless, there are some other Echo devices overdue for updates.

Concerns over accuracy lead to another delay for the souped-up virtual assistant — but the launch showcase will still go ahead.

OpenAI rival Anthropic on Monday released what it said is its smartest artificial intelligence model to date, particularly when it comes to computer coding.
