Starting 2021, Android fans will be able to have Google’s mobile
operating system in their cars. Google is teaming up with the Renault-
Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance (RNMA), the world’s biggest auto group
that jointly sells more cars than any other carmaker collective, to
develop the dedicated operating system that will control the car’s
entertainment and GPS systems, according to the leading technology
news and media porta The Verge.
The operating system will allow users to download automobile-specific apps
through Android’s Play Store, and will be assisted by Google Maps for
navigational requirements and by Google Assistant for voice
commands.

Saint Louis University in Missouri recently
announced it would put over 2,300 Amazon Echo
Dot smart speakers enabled with Amazon's voice
assistant Alexa in every dorm room on campus.
CNBC- June 26, 2017
Developers at top hospitals and medical clinics
across the country are tinkering with Amazon Alexa and
other voice technologies for a variety of applications.
Boston Children's Hospital piloted an Alexa app to
help physicians comply with protocols before
procedures and surgeries.

Bain also found that in categories in which Amazon
has a private brand, 17% of the time Alexa
recommends the private-label product.
The Next Big Threat To Consumer
Brands (Yes, Amazon’s Behind It)

Sabrina Chaudhuri and Sharon Terlep
In a test conducted in October 2017, Bain & Co. found that for
customers making a first-time purchase without specifying a brand,
over half of the time Alexa’s first recommendation was a
product from the “Amazon’s Choice” algorithm, which
implies a well-rated, well-priced item that ships with Prime. The amount of revenue
Amazon’s private-label
business (with its 120
proprietary brands) is
expected to generate
by 2022.
