Amazon just released a brand new feature to the Echo devices running Alexa. Whisper mode. When enabled, if you whisper something to Alexa, she will whisper the responses back to you. This is super useful for late night queries or turning off lights via Alexa at night when everyone is sleeping. When enabled she will whisper pretty much everything back and also maintain the whisper voice during followup conversations. Whisper mode is pretty amazing behind the scenes and uses one of Amazon’s new AI neural networks to analyze speech patterns to see if a person is whispering. Future versions will be able to tell if you are sick (and possibly recommend buying cough drops or medicine) as well as moods and inflection. Hunches when enabled will use machine learning to analyze patterns in your smart home activity to suggest things that you might want done. If Amazon realizes that you normally turn on the kitchen lights when launching your Flash briefing, Hunches might have her suggest it when you ask to play the Flash briefing. Guard Mode builds on the same Neural network that powers Whisper awareness to also have your echoes listen for Breaking Glass and sirens when you are not home. If heard and understood, it would notify you via push message to you mobile that an event might be happening at your home.
