Amazon Alexa

Alexa is an American artificial intelligence made by Amazon that communicates through the device Echo.
==History==
===Echo===
In 2011, work on it began, with it nicknamed Project D, with the reasoning being Kindle being Project A and the Fire Phone being Project B, and it being an offshoot of Project C, which is unknown, though the work on it has stopped. It was supposed to be called the Amazon Flash, and the wake word was supposed to be called "Amazon", which were both rejected by Lab126, after feeling like Amazon is too commonly used. The chief executive officer of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, decided to change the wake word to Alexa and the name to Echo.
===Alexa===
Alexa was developed out of a predecessor named Ivona, which was bought by Amazon in 2013.
==Channel==
It created its channel on June 2, 2016, and uploaded its first video on February 12, 2018, titled "Meet Alexa: Questions & Answers". On April 25, 2018, it uploaded its first long-form video, titled "Echo Dot Kids Edition".
==Content==
On its channel, it uploads commercials for Echo and Alexa.
==Trivia==
*The name Alexa was chosen because it has a hard consonant on the x, and because it was reminiscent of the Library of Alexandria.
