NEWS UPDATES

Amazon Launches Fast, Cheap Voice AI

Amazon just launched Nova Sonic, a new voice AI model that’s faster, cheaper, and more accurate than rivals from OpenAI and Google. It powers Alexa+ and is now available on Amazon Bedrock for developers. It handles noisy speech better, speaks more naturally, and responds faster — all while costing 80% less than GPT-4o.

Why it matters:

This lowers the cost and complexity of adding smart voice to enterprise apps, customer support, and field ops. It also signals Amazon’s bigger push into AGI.

Insight:

Expect Amazon to open more internal AI tools to developers. Smart leaders should test Sonic now for customer-facing voice workflows

Google Adds Visual Search to AI Mode

Google just upgraded its AI search with a new visual feature. Now, users can upload a photo and get smart, contextual answers based on what’s in the image. This is free and rolling out to millions via Google Labs.

Why it matters:

Search is shifting from keywords to conversation and context. This changes how people find products, ask questions, and make decisions — directly impacting e-commerce, marketing, and customer experience.

Insight:

Watch how this alters SEO and product discovery. Leaders should test visual AI search to rethink how customers find and engage with their brand

IBM Doubles Down on AI Consulting

IBM just bought Hakkoda, a fast-growing AI and data consultancy. This follows IBM’s recent buys of DataStax and HashiCorp. The goal: speed up how it brings AI tools and advice to big clients in finance, healthcare, and government. IBM’s AI consulting is now a $5B+ business and growing fast.

Why it matters:

Enterprise AI is shifting from pilots to scale. IBM wants to own that services layer—and this deal makes it harder for rivals to catch up.

Insight:

Watch IBM’s next moves in Latin America and Europe, where Hakkoda already has deep consulting roots. Expect more regional buys.
